What if the only destination for dating is marriage? Senior pastor Stephen Chandler unpacks his transformative "Relationship Roadmap" approach, challenging our modern dating culture with refreshing honesty.

Through vulnerable stories of his own marriage journey — from being the broke pastor who married a financially stable nurse, to learning the hard way about how his achievement-driven mindset nearly damaged his marriage — Stephen reveals why the two decisions that will define your life are what you do with God and who you choose to spend your life with.

The Law of Assumption Beats the Law of Attraction | Jim Curtis Apr 07, 2025

Show notes

Get my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

I was captivated by Jim Curtis's profound insight that most of our limitations are self-created "mind traps" we fall into without realizing it. As a master hypnotherapist who overcame decades of debilitating nerve pain, Jim shared how our negativity bias, confirmation bias, and the "backfire effect" keep us stuck in patterns that no longer serve us. The conversation revealed how Jim's own healing journey took him from a wheelchair to wholeness by shifting his focus from what was broken to what was possible. What struck me most was his practical demonstration of self-hypnosis that anyone can use to quiet the critical mind and reconnect with their true "I am" state. This episode offers transformative wisdom for anyone struggling with physical pain, emotional blocks, or limiting beliefs about their worthiness.

Spirituality Protects You From Suicide More Than Medication | Dr. Lisa Miller Apr 04, 2025

Show notes

Get my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

The awakened brain's extraordinary power to transform our mental health lies at the intersection of spirituality and neuroscience. This episode proves that. Dr. Lisa Miller reveals it through groundbreaking research showing spiritual connection physically alters brain function. We also explore how our brains are literally built with neural networks designed to perceive transcendent love, receive divine guidance, and experience oneness. Capabilities that, when activated, reduce cortisol, mitigate depression, and shield against addiction and suicide. Dr. Rangan Chatterjee shares how learning to manage our stress response through simple practices like mindful breathing and releasing the need to always be right creates lasting inner peace. And, neurosurgeon Dr. Rahul Jandial offers a fascinating perspective on why we must dream, explaining that our brains cycle between waking and dreaming states as a form of "high-intensity training" essential for maintaining mental flexibility. These three expert conversations help uncover how spiritual practice, stress management, and proper sleep create the foundation for profound mental wellness and personal transformation.

In this episode you will learn:

The three key networks of an awakened brain that make us feel loved, guided, and connected to something greater
Why spirituality provides 80% protection against suicide and more protection against depression and addiction than medication alone
How to nurture your child's natural spiritual awareness without needing to have all the answers yourself
The powerful "3 Fs" technique to break free from emotional eating and manage stress in healthy ways
Why breathing patterns directly signal your brain about danger or safety, and simple breath work to reset your nervous system
The surprising science of why humans must dream and how dreams serve as essential "training" for the brain
