Podcasts about your life

Are you striving for success, yet finding yourself wondering if your achievements really matter? The answer to a fulfilled life may lie in asking deeper questions, not just chasing accomplishments. In this bonus episode of the Maxwell Leadership Podcast, Mark Cole and Jared Cagle are joined by author and professor Arthur C. Brooks to discuss the pillars of a meaningful life (especially in an age of emptiness). Key takeaways:  Meaning in life isn't just about setting goals; it's about asking "why" and finding deeper significance in what you do.  Serving others shifts the focus away from chasing success for its own sake and unlocks fulfillment through impact and connection.  Every leader's journey is marked by both triumphs and setbacks—true growth comes from learning to find purpose in both.

Dear Community, In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with Elizabeth April, internationally recognized remote viewer, author, and intuitive teacher, for a mind-expanding conversation on quantum reality, timelines, anxiety, the Galactic Federation, disclosure, and the future of human consciousness.We begin by exploring the relationship between quantum mechanics and consciousness, and why Elizabeth believes reality is rendered through observation. From there, we dive into the power of awareness, how small choices can shift us into new timelines, and why so many people are living on autopilot rather than consciously creating their lives.Elizabeth also shares her perspective on 2026–2028 as a pivotal window for collective awakening, why humanity is being asked to choose between love and fear, and what she sees unfolding around ET disclosure, the Galactic Federation, and global timelines.We also explore her powerful framework around past, present, and future anxiety, and why healing anxiety requires understanding its relationship to time, trauma, and our focus on possible realities. This conversation is both cosmic and deeply practical—an invitation to step out of distraction, reclaim your sovereignty, and consciously choose the reality you want to live in.“The most important choice humanity is being asked to make right now is simple: love or fear, unity or separation.” - Elizabeth April We talk about the following and so much more: The connection between quantum mechanics and consciousnessWhy awareness is the gateway to intuition, spirituality, and creationHow to consciously shift timelines through small daily choicesWhy 2026–2028 may be a major turning point for humanityElizabeth's perspective on the Galactic Federation and disclosureThe difference between past, present, and future anxietyWhy distraction keeps people disconnected from their powerHow to ask for more out of life—and be ready to receive itWhat it means to choose between love and fear, unity and separationIf you've been feeling the intensity of this moment, this episode offers a powerful reminder: your awareness is your superpower, your energy matters, and the timeline you live in is more malleable than you may think.Tune in to Gateways to Awakening for more conversations with leading thinkers, creators, and spiritual pioneers shaping the future of consciousness. We would love to hear from you! What did you take away from this episode? Tag us and let us know. For more from me: follow my writing on Substack (substack.com/@therealyasmeent), find me on Instagram @TheRealYasmeenT555, or visit InnerKnowingSchool.com.In this episode, we explore:I recently wrote the book A Glitch In The Matrix: 10 Energy Codes to Become The Main Character of Your Life, which is available in print, Kindle, and Audible (in my own voice).

Life can collapse faster than we expect. A divorce, financial loss, health issues, or the breakdown of relationships can leave a man wondering where to even begin again. In this episode of Friday Field Notes, Ryan Michler shares six strategies for rebuilding your life when everything feels like it's falling apart. Drawing from personal experience and years of working with thousands of men, Ryan explains why rebuilding doesn't start with massive breakthroughs—it starts with small, disciplined actions that restore stability and control. If you're facing rock bottom—or helping someone who is—this episode outlines the mindset and practical steps required to rebuild stronger than before. Ryan covers why stabilizing yourself is more important than rushing into strategy, how taking full ownership restores your personal power, and why rebuilding your body is one of the fastest ways to regain confidence and discipline. He also explains the importance of simplifying your life, stacking small wins, and surrounding yourself with the right brotherhood so you don't face the rebuilding process alone. Rock bottom doesn't have to be the end of your story. It can be the foundation for becoming the man you were meant to be.

Listen in as Bernadette and Brian meet again, this time to discuss Brian's book, “Spouse Hunting: Using the Rules of Real Estate to Find the Love of Your Life.” Holy Crap! This book actually works! Brian was single for a long time. Long enough to get tired of dating beautiful women, taking exotic vacations, and partying with other single, rich powerful, good-looking guys. One day it occured to him: What if there was a way to apply what I am really good at (real estate) to what—so far—I pretty much sucked at (finding true love)? Turns out, yep. Just about everyrule I advise my clients to follow in order to buy or sell a home applies to finding true love.Brian Belefant started his career as an advertising copywriter, writing hundreds of commercials for major brands, from Nissan to Pepsi. His short stories appear in American Writers Review, Magpie Messenger, Story Unlikely, Libretto, and Half and One. He has written two novels and a how-to book, Spouse Hunting: Using the Rules of Real Estate to Find the Love of Your Life (spoiler alert: it works!).

Who Is the Architect of Your Life? by Scott Rusnak https://www.amazon.com/Audible-Who-Architect-Your-Life/dp/B0FRFGLBSC Scottrusnak.com Do you have the courage to become the architect of your own life? It starts with a simple but powerful shift: Understanding that every “no” creates space for the right “yes.” Say yes to the right things—and your life moves forward with purpose. Say yes to the wrong things—and you'll overcommit. I know this because I've lived it. Early in my career, I said yes to everything. Opportunities, collaborations, and projects that seemed important at the time. But it left me scattered, exhausted, and ultimately stuck. I was “over-committed.” It wasn't until I mastered the discipline of saying NO that I found my stride. My focus sharpened, my impact grew, and I felt more aligned than ever. And in doing so, I felt fully aligned with the life I was meant to lead. In this book's step-by-step process, I take you through a practical, battle-tested process to: Build the Architect's Mindset—so you can design a life you’re proud to live. Clarify your values, your where, your what, and your why Surround yourself with the right people to fuel your growth Set clear, aligned goals—and actually follow through Design your days, weeks, and year to stay on track This isn't theory. It's a system I've used personally and with thousands of high-achieving entrepreneurs, athletes, and executives. You already have what it takes. Now you need the blueprint. Most people will be in the same place next year. Let's make sure that person isn't you.

Ritchie Nkana is a Chartered Accountant turned Peak Performance Architect. He spent over 20 years in banking, quietly burning out as the classic “chubby banker”... successful on paper, exhausted in real life. A few health scares and some honest conversations at home forced Ritchie to rebuild his operating system from the inside out. Along the way Ritchie became a Personal Trainer, sports nutritionist, metabolic conditioning coach and pain-free performance specialist. But what changed his life wasn't just muscle, it was systems.Those systems evolved into The Operator's Edge™: a set of frameworks that help performance-minded leaders win across four pillars – health, enterprise, relationships and legacy, without burning out. Today Ritchie works with founders, executives and professionals who want full-spectrum success, not just a bigger job title.Contact Richie Nkana:www.RitchieNkana.ComX: https://x.com/RitchieNkanaDr. Kimberley LinertSpeaker, Author, Broadcaster, Mentor, Trainer, Behavioral OptometristEvent Planners- I am available to speak at your event.

Denis Villeneuve's Arrival  Since the beginning of this new century Popular Cinema has become increasingly obvious and simplistic. It is rare that a major studio will take a chance with "challenging, thought-provoking" material. In 2016 Denis Villeneuve would adapt Tony Chiang's 1998 novella "Story of Your Life" with a beautifully executed non-linear narrative. A sci-fi drama incorporating alien contact, geopolitics, diplomacy, and the perception of time, Villeneuve's film is a powerful and optimistic take on a genre that is often driven by pessimism and hopelessness. What could have easily been an overly formulaic bore is instead an intellectually demanding and cinematically rewarding experience that was recognized as one of the best pictures of 2016. Featuring Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, and - the always reliable - Forrest Whitaker, Arrival is a gift to the starved cineaste. As always, you can reach us at gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many, Many Thanks.  For those of you who would like to donate to this undying labor of love, you can do so with a contribution at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/watchrickramos - Anything and Everything is appreciated, You Cheap Bastards.

“Spirituality and emotional health are directly linked to wellness,” says Dr. Don Colbert. He has been specializing in family medicine and anti-aging for decades. Dr. Colbert is the bestselling author of multiple books, including the Spiritual Health Zone: Add Joy, Love, Peace, and Years to Your Life. He says that applying Scriptural commands to our lives, like implementing the Fruits of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-23), can greatly contribute to improving our health and overall wellness and eradicate disease. “We want to activate the Fruit of the Spirit and crucify the flesh,” Dr. Colbert advises. To free the body from a chronic fight or flight response, and to quell inflammation, get to the root of the problem: enter the spiritual health zone, lean on God's wisdom, and dig into His promises. Forgiveness is key to a healthy body, as well. TAKEAWAYS Medical knowledge is valuable, but it cannot produce true wellness on its own Practicing Biblical virtues like forgiveness helps calm the body's physical stress response Spend time in God's Word daily, pray consistently, and teach your children to live out the Fruits of the Spirit Refusing to forgive can contribute to emotional and physical sickness

Dr. Pedro Barata and Dr. Kathryn Schmitz discuss evidence-based exercise oncology programs, how to incorporate exercise into cancer care and connect the right patient to the right program, and ultimately build a culture of exercise in oncology. TRANSCRIPT Dr. Pedro Barata: Hello, and welcome to By the Book, a podcast series from ASCO that features compelling perspectives from authors and editors of the ASCO Educational Book. I'm Dr. Pedro Barata. I'm a medical oncologist and a clinical trialist at the University Hospital Seidman Cancer Center and an associate professor of medicine at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. I'm also happy to serve as a deputy editor for the ASCO Educational Book. Today, we'll be talking about exercise. We have plenty of evidence that exercise benefits symptoms, improves the quality of life of patients, and actually has been shown to reduce risk of recurrence of cancer but also improve survival. And I think that's increasingly clear as data emerges. Today, I'm delighted to be speaking to Dr. Kathryn Schmitz. She's a leading expert on integrating exercise into cancer care. Dr. Schmitz serves as the deputy director of the University of Pittsburgh Hillman Cancer Center and also a professor of hematology-oncology at University of Pittsburgh Medical School. She's the senior author of a fantastic article in the ASCO Educational Book that's titled "Implementation Science as the Secret Sauce for Integrating Exercise Screening and Triage Pathways in Oncology." She also led a really compelling piece that just got published in JCO titled "If Exercise Were a Pill, We'd All Prescribe It to Patients With Cancer. But It's Not" So I'm thrilled to have Dr. Schmitz joining us today and helping us explore evidence-based exercise oncology programs, how to incorporate exercise into cancer care, and also how to connect the right patient to the right program.  So with that, welcome, Dr. Schmitz. Thank you so much for taking the time to chat with us. Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: Thank you for the opportunity. Dr. Pedro Barata: One of the highlights of ASCO last year and practice changing, in my opinion, data out of The New England [Journal of Medicine] is called the CHALLENGE trial. It did provide high level evidence that a structured, supervised exercise program could improve both disease-free survival and overall survival. This is a study in the GI world, but I think it got a lot of attraction and attention beyond the GI world, across solid tumors, really. Could you give us a little brief recap of that trial and what have you seen as being the impact in practices around oncology? Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: So, CHALLENGE was very exciting. Prior to CHALLENGE, there were any number of observational studies that indicated that there was a relationship between being more physically active and reduced recurrence and improved overall survival for colon cancer in particular. You know, notably, in 2006, Jeff Meyerhardt published two papers in the same journal, of the same issue of JCO, showing very, very similar data from two very large studies. And those were studies number five and six in this area. You know, there's a lot of evidence observationally, but we don't generally change clinical practice on the basis of observational data. So, we were all waiting very impatiently for the results of the CHALLENGE trial. And it was very exciting to be in the front row when the results were reported out and to be part of the group with a standing ovation for the authors when it was presented. To summarize, 889 colon cancer patients, stage II and III, were randomized into either a structured exercise program or a health education control comparison group and followed for an average of 7.9 years. And the structured exercise group had a 27% reduced risk of recurrence and a 38% improvement in overall survival. One of the things that's really notable about this is that what we typically expect is that when we go from the observational literature to the clinical trial literature, that we expect effects to go down. We expect to see a larger effect in the observational than in the RCT land, and that did not happen here. We actually see an effect that matches what we've seen in observational literature, which is really, really exciting.  And, you know, one of the reasons why this has been so exciting across not just GI but other cancers is the notable finding of a reduced risk of second primaries. So, they only observed two breast cancer second primaries in the treatment group and 12 in the comparison group. And overall, they reduced the second primaries occurrence, hazard ratio was 0.5, a 50% reduction of second primaries, which is just remarkable. It really got everybody very, very excited. And now the big question, of course, is, all right, how do I do this? How do I make this happen?  The thing to note is that what they did in CHALLENGE is probably not doable in your clinic tomorrow. It's a heavy intervention. The number of touchpoints from staff is extensive, and the amount of time needed from staff for the coaching and supervised exercise is extensive as well. The criteria for getting people into the program required that people go through a series of blood tests and imaging tests that would just simply not be possible for the average community oncologist. So I'm guessing that you're going to ask me some questions about how we do this. Dr. Pedro Barata: Right. That's a fantastic segue. That's exactly right. Walk us through maybe starting by, what does that mean? Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: The first thing to say is I have to go back to the observational literature. And the observational literature shows really compellingly that we have a strong reduction of breast cancer recurrence and mortality from being more physically active, prostate cancer recurrence and mortality, and colon cancer recurrence and mortality. I find it very difficult to believe in this day and age, in our current environment, if you will, that we are ever going to have the equivalent of CHALLENGE for prostate or for breast cancer. There is an ongoing study in prostate that's led by some Australian researchers, but I just don't think that it's likely that we're going to mount something similar for another tumor site. We have tremendous correlative data that indicates that there are a number of biomarkers and biological pathways through which breast, colon, and prostate cancer would be reduced in recurrence if people were more physically active. And so, there is really, from my thinking, very little to state that it would be just a colon cancer effect. And so this is something we probably can enact in more than just the colon cancer community, overall, which is great news, and it makes it easier for us to be able to enact this type of programming. Dr. Pedro Barata: One of the things that comes up perhaps often is, if I were the leader of the cancer center and were to incentivize the different care teams to implement an exercise program at each level: GI team, GU, breast, thoracic, etc. How do we do that? Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: So, I want to give you an analogy. You're a medical oncologist, and you prescribe your patients chemotherapy. Now, just imagine, if you will, what would happen and how likely it would be for your patients to get chemotherapy if there was no chemoinfusion suite. If the chemoinfusion suite disappeared tomorrow and you were to tell your patients, "Go get some chemotherapy," what proportion of those patients do you think would go find all of the equipment necessary and all of the drugs necessary and understand how to dose the chemotherapy for themselves and get that all done? Very few people would do it. So with exercise, why would we be surprised then that our patients don't actually do a whole lot if we just simply tell them to go get some exercise? Exercise is a medicine. It is effective like a medicine. We've shown this through the CHALLENGE trial and many other correlative studies and an ocean of observational data as well. So the question is, how do we build the infrastructure that is necessary in order for your patients to do this? So the very first thing that has to happen is that somebody has to tell the patient to exercise. We currently do not have a culture of exercise in oncology. We do in heart disease. If you ask the average person on the street, "Is exercise good for your heart?" Anybody with an eighth-grade education is going to say, "Yes, of course," because the American Heart Association has done an amazing job telling everybody that exercise is good for your heart. But what has ASCO done, frankly? Can I be that bold? What has ASCO done to tell patients that they should be exercising during and after their cancer treatment? I'm not sure that I know more than a guideline. There is a guideline, and that's great. And the guideline is very helpful, but I'm not sure that patients know that there's a guideline. In fact, I can tell you that patients don't know that there is a guideline. So, you know, making sure that there's a paradigm shift in the country that says exercise is good for patients during and after their cancer treatment is the first step. The second step is getting a medical professional to say something to the patient about the exercise. And I'm very careful with the two words that I just chose: medical professional. I do understand medical oncologists are very busy. I understand that there's a whole lot to say in that 15 minutes when you're with the patient. And so maybe it isn't the medical oncologist. Ideally, it would be, but I get it that there's limited time. So it could be a nurse practitioner, it could be a nurse, there could be a social worker, it could be somebody else on the team that says, "Hey, you know, we want you to do an exercise program. We want to connect you to an exercise program." And then there's what is the program itself? You know, I'm very interested in this happening across the entire country. And so I've been working with the leadership of the Commission on Cancer on the question of, well, how would you do this in community oncology? You know, it's not enough to do it in academic medicine, but how do you do this in community oncology? And you can't expect that every community hospital is going to build a gym for their cancer patients. That is just not reasonable to do. So, we start to try to figure out some phone counseling. Could we give people Fitbits and follow them? Could we use technology to help us? Are there telehealth opportunities for us to do? Are there apps that have been built? In fact, there is a [free] app called Cancer Exercise that's on, you know, all of the platforms and available to patients. So there are programs. I've developed a directory of over 2,000 programs that exist across the country for exercise oncology that patients can find, medical oncologists can find.  So there are a lot of people trying to figure out how best to get the information to medical oncologists and other medical professionals so that they can have an 'easy button' to be able to connect their patients to existing programming so that you don't feel like you have to build a whole new program. Dr. Pedro Barata: If I don't have the resources around me, what would be your advice for the care team or for the providers that might not have that available at their site? Where do they start? Who do they reach out to? Who should they be looking at to get more information on how to set it up? Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: I lead an international consortium called Moving Through Cancer. You can find us at movingthroughcancer.org. That's where you'll find the map of all of the programs across the country and the directory. We actually have a triage tool that sits at the front of the directory that allows people to discern what type of exercise they're safe to do. We do recognize that, you know, the 80-year-old that fell last week doesn't need the same program as the 35-year-old that was playing pickleball the day before diagnosis. So, you know, there are different kinds of programs for people at different levels of acuity. We're happy to be helpful to folks to help them set up programs.  But the number one thing is to really be very aware of the power of saying something about doing exercise, just simply the power of saying, "I want you to be moving." Because frankly, I don't think anybody listening to this would disagree, no one benefits from sitting on the couch all day, no one. No one, no one. It doesn't matter how acute their medical issues are. We get people out of bed. We try to move people even when they're in the hospital. So I think saying something is huge. And then, if you can, applying a triage tool, if you can get something embedded within your clinical flow so that you can understand who it is that needs to go to physical therapy as opposed to who's ready for an exercise program. Those are the two things. So triage and referral is kind of step one. And if you can get that done, the rest will fall into place. Dr. Pedro Barata: This is really powerful message, where one, awareness of the care teams. Number two, bring it up to the patient. And then working on the referral, triage and referral process. That's fantastic. Another aspect that comes up quite a bit is like, "Look, this is great, but we have a system that relies on payers to make things happen, or at least to get them approved." And that can be very different or heterogeneous. The coverage can be different. Sometimes already going through a system programs for interventions, therapeutic interventions, let alone probably the insurance is not going to cover that. Is that true? Is it not true? How do you walk through the different insurance supports, perhaps, depending on where you're practicing? Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: You've just hit on the hot button. I've been working on this issue for about nine years now, trying to figure out using efforts to talk to CMS and see if we can get third party payer coverage going. We were making good progress there, and there was a change of administration and a new focus on "Make America Healthy Again," the MAHA movement. And, you know, CMS is really no longer interested in one-off national coverage determination. They instead, they want to know, "How do we make exercise happen for every American over 65?" And my question is, "Well, wait a minute, cancer patients are not just older patients. There's a lot going on there. They need something special." So I've been working on that. It's been working with accrediting bodies for policy with a little p. Very proud of the work that I've done in collaboration with the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers, trying to get standards to get exercise referrals for breast patients. And I'm currently holding my breath to see whether the CoC is going to try to make some forward motion in this area as well, crossing all period appendages, waiting for news there. So it's not paid for unless it's done by a physical therapist. And, you know, there's published evidence and I have plenty of evidence from UPMC as well, that people don't really want to go to the physical therapist for this. I'm not saying physical therapists aren't great. Physical therapists are great, and there are people who really need to go to physical therapy, and we try hard to get those patients connected. But for the patients that are ready for something more than physical therapy, we really have an uphill battle to try to figure out what insurers are willing to pay for and what the return on investment is.  One of the challenges with the return on investment is that the timeline, time course for return on investment for American insurers is about one year. And I'll remind you that the time course for return on investment for CHALLENGE was 7.9 years. So we have a mismatch there. So we're trying to figure out if we can produce the evidence to show that there is an improvement in unplanned health care utilization. We have documented that for breast cancer. We're working on it for other cancers. If we can document that it is worthwhile to the insurer to pay for these programs, then I believe that they will pay for them. You know, my conversations are very positive with UPMC, which is a very large insurer and a large health plan. We're slowly working our way towards the middle, where there's a program that they can pay for and a program that is efficacious. That's the puzzle we're trying to solve for right now. Dr. Pedro Barata: This has been wonderful and super helpful. Before we wrap it up, is there anything else you would like to share with our listeners? Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: I want to make sure that your audience is aware that there are a variety of ways that exercise oncology is practiced. The program that most oncologists will be familiar with is LIVESTRONG, which is a program at the YMCA. It's a free program. At one point, there were over 800 locations across the U.S. They have contracted since COVID, probably because of COVID. So they still do exist but imagine, if you will, telling your patients that chemo is only available Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. It would be difficult for patients to get there and get the chemotherapy. The same thing is true for the LIVESTRONG program. It's a fantastic, fantastic program for people who are able to get there, but that's one option. Another option for patients is there are a variety of online opportunities. I'll call out 2Unstoppable for women's cancers. It's literally the number 2Unstoppable.org. It's a free program available to women with cancer to have live, small group training programs. And they're based in Virginia, but they have programs all over the country. And then finally, I just want to overemphasize the app, the Cancer Exercise app. It's literally called Cancer Exercise in the app store. And that is a super duper easy button, very comprehensive, developed by a nurse scientist, Anna Schwartz. And then there are a variety of books. I wrote a book called Moving Through Cancer. There's a new book out [MyExerciseMedicine for Cancer] by Dr. Rob Newton as well, who's an Australian author. And there are certifications for exercise professionals that folks can look into as well through the American College of Sports Medicine. Dr. Pedro Barata: Dr. Schmitz, this is fantastic. Thank you for sharing those great insights with us. Super, super helpful. Thank you for taking the time. Dr. Kathryn Schmitz: Thank you so much. Dr. Pedro Barata: Thank you to our listeners for your time today. Remember, you'll find links to Dr. Schmitz's fantastic Educational Book as well as the JCO articles in the transcript of this episode. I'll invite all of you to go and read. And we'll also include a link to Dr. Schmitz's book titled Moving Through Cancer: An Exercise and Strength Program for the Fight of Your Life, which empowers patients and caregivers in simple five steps.  So with that, please join us again next month on By the Book for more insights on key advances and innovations that are shaping modern oncology.

In this week's message from James 4:13–5:6, we explore Making the Most of Your Life and are confronted with a sobering truth: our lives are like a mist — here for a moment and then gone. James challenges the common assumption that competence, success, and wealth mean we have life under control. Instead, he reminds us that the future is uncertain and every breath we take is a gift from God.James addresses those who confidently plan their future as if tomorrow is guaranteed. Planning itself is not the problem; the danger lies in the posture of the heart. When we live as if we control our own destiny, we forget our dependence on God. True wisdom acknowledges God's sovereignty and approaches life with humility, recognizing that every plan ultimately rests in His hands.The passage also warns about the temptation to build our lives around temporary things. Wealth, possessions, accomplishments, and status may seem significant now, but James reminds us that the tide of eternity is always coming. One day everything temporary will fade, and what will truly matter is whether our lives were invested in what lasts forever — the Word of God and the souls of people.This message invites us to step back and examine what we are living for. Many people spend their lives chasing success, security, or recognition, only to discover that these things cannot satisfy or endure. Scripture calls us instead to live with eternity in view, allowing the reality of life's brevity to shape our priorities and decisions.James also reminds us that life's shortness should move us to action. Knowing the right thing to do and failing to do it is sin. Because life is fragile and fleeting, we cannot afford to delay obedience, reconciliation, generosity, or faithfulness to God. The time to follow Christ, serve others, and live faithfully is not someday — it is today.In this message, we explore:✔ Why James describes our lives as a mist✔ The difference between planning with pride and planning with humility✔ How self-reliance can quietly replace dependence on God✔ The danger of living for temporary wealth and achievements✔ Why eternity must shape how we view success and purpose✔ The difference between sins of commission and sins of omission✔ Why delayed obedience is still disobedience✔ How to live each day with humility, eternity, and immediacy in viewThough our lives are brief, the hope of the gospel is that Jesus is not a mist. Through His death and resurrection, He offers eternal life to all who trust in Him. Because of that hope, we can live each day with purpose — investing our lives in what truly matters and making the most of the time God has given us.

Roeper predicts major category splits (including Best Actor, Best Actress, supporting races), discusses what makes ‘Sinners' work beyond the vampire premise, praises ‘Hamnet' and ‘Song, Song Blue,' and weighs in on concerns that the Paramount-Skydance bid for Warner Bros. Discovery could reduce competition and jobs in the creative industry.

What if money isn't just money—but stored life energy?In this episode, I reflect on the core premise of Your Money or Your Life by Joseph R. Dominguez and Vicki Robin and how it's showing up in my own life as a physician. From reviewing Medicare reimbursement rates to comparing insurance-based care with cash-pay work, I share why the trade between effort, responsibility, and compensation is starting to feel misaligned.We explore what financial independence really means, how much money is truly needed for a fulfilling life, and why many of the most meaningful activities cost very little. I also talk about the fear of stepping away from medicine, market risk, and the difference between an ideal life and a “good enough” one. This episode isn't about quitting medicine—it's an invitation to pause and ask:Is the way you're trading your life energy for money still worth it?Please subscribe and leave a review on your favorite Podcasting platform.

Writer Caroline Paul learned to fly a Cessna when she was 20, a paraglider in her 30s, a motorized hang glider in her 40s, and then at 58 years old, as her marriage was dissolving, she took up the gyrocopter, an odd aircraft that resembles a tiny helicopter. “The reasons for this aren't all mysterious. It's easier to learn a landing than a human heart,” she writes in her new book “Why Fly: Seeking Awe Healing and Our True Selves in the Sky.” We talk to Paul about the history of flight, why it captivates us, and how she tried to pilot her way through heartbreak. Guests: Caroline Paul, pilot; author, "Why Fly: Seeking Awe, Healing, and Our True Selves in the Sky;" her most recent books include "Tough Broad: From Boogie Boarding to Wing Walking-How Outdoor Adventure Improves Our Lives as We Age" and "The Gutsy Girl: Escapades for Your Life of Epic Adventure" Learn more about your ad choices.

Should physicians trade their time for money — or is that equation fundamentally broken? In this episode, we unpack why so many doctors save too much for too long, sacrificing their best years to build a nest egg they struggle to spend. Drawing from Vicki Robin's Your Money or Your Life, Morgan Housel's Psychology of Money, and Bill Perkins' Die With Zero, we explore a healthier framework for thinking about time, money, and financial independence as a physician. Jimmy also shares a major personal update — after nearly twenty years at Wake Forest, he's making a career change that trades income for autonomy. No more nights, weekends, or holidays, but it comes at a real financial cost. It's the perfect case study for everything we discuss in this episode. We break down the three stages of a doctor's financial life — from residency where you have neither time nor money, to mid-career where you finally have income but no time, to financial independence where you get both back. The problem? Most physicians get stuck in the middle stage far longer than they need to because of identity inertia, golden handcuffs, lifestyle lock-in, and the fear of earning less. If you've ever wondered whether you should work less, take the pay cut, or keep grinding toward a number — this one's for you.

Read OnlineWhile still more people gathered in the crowd, Jesus said to them, “This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it, except the sign of Jonah.” Luke 11:29Today's Gospel takes place during the midpoint of Jesus' public ministry. By this time, He had healed the sick, cast out demons, raised the dead, preached many powerful sermons, and changed many hearts. Despite that, many in the crowds did not believe in Him and demanded more signs.Additionally, the Pharisees were becoming increasingly hostile toward our Lord. In Luke's Gospel, they confront and criticize Jesus several times before this passage. In today's Gospel, Jesus addresses His rebuke to these Pharisees and the unbelieving crowds.If Jesus' generation was “an evil generation,” what would He say about our own? In many ways, we are becoming a global culture. While there are countless faithful followers of Christ worldwide, evil seems to be more pervasive today, perhaps more noticeable due to the ease of worldwide communication.Though Jesus delivered His sermons to specific people in His time, His words transcend time and are meant for every generation. When He says, “This generation is an evil generation…,” we must understand that He is also speaking to us today.When Jesus says His generation “seeks a sign,” He points out a common human temptation. Many approach the Gospel skeptically, demanding irrefutable proof that they should change their lives, believe in the Good News, and abandon sin. In today's world, some even glorify sin, treating virtue as outdated or foolish. This distorted outlook leads many to disregard the most important sign of all—Jesus' Death and Resurrection.Yet Jesus is clear: “…no sign will be given it, except the sign of Jonah.” Jonah's three days in the belly of the fish prefigured Jesus' three days in the tomb. In other words, Jesus' Death and Resurrection is the one and only sign given to us. This is striking because so many fail to pay attention to this ultimate sign of salvation. In the end, we can only change ourselves and hope that our conversion becomes a witness to others.Do you believe in this sign? Do you believe that Jesus' Life, Death, and Resurrection is the sole path to salvation? Most likely, you do. But how deep is that belief?Though Jesus performed many miracles during His earthly ministry, He did so as a response to the faith already present in those around Him. Today, the same is true. Physical miracles mean little compared to the saving Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Christ. They are merely reflections of the greatest miracle—eternal salvation. If you truly want to witness a miracle, turn to this supreme gift of grace and mercy. Believe with all your heart, and you will witness the transformation of your soul, which is the greatest miracle of all. Reflect today on Jesus' rebuke of the evil surrounding us, which demands proof but refuses to see the one sign that truly matters. The only proof Jesus offers is the grace that transforms us. When we discover and embrace this grace, we will know, believe, and be changed. Open your heart to the miracle of conversion that God desires to bestow upon you, and become a witness of Christ's greatest miracle for others to see. My miraculous Lord, though many in every age seek superficial signs, You offer the one true miracle that brings salvation—Your Life, Death, and Resurrection. Please help me to believe with unwavering faith, and protect me from the evil of this generation. Transform my heart so that I may be the fruit of the miracle You wish to give to the world.
