Win Today: Your Roadmap to Wholeness

This is week five of our "Formed" series. In today's conversation, my new friend Strahan Coleman is here to talk about the cost of formation, how to negotiate with sorrow and silence, and why you can't perform your way to God's heart. Strahan is a writer, musician, and spiritual director from New Zealand. His work helps people to grow a deep friendship with God, seeing prayer as far more than conscious mental dialogue but as a way of existing with God in our everyday ordinary lives. His prayers and poems are invitations toward an honest, rested and open life lived in the Spirit and his dialogue around how we can incorporate ancient prayer forms into our modern lives has helped give language to a generation longing for a deeper living experience of God.

Welcome to week four of our [Formed.] series. In today's conversation, my good friend Anthony Skinner is here to talk about what it means to be formed in our heart, our soul, our mind, and our strength. We'll also talk about how to develop a hearing ear; how to hear and then respond quickly to the Lord's direction in our lives, and also what it takes to heal the orphan heart. Anthony Skinner is a Spiritual Director, music and podcast producer, award-winning songwriter, recording artist, worship leader, and cohost of the popular Typology Podcast with Ian Cron.

This week, author and pastor Dharius Daniels is here to talk about emotional intelligence and the misguided pursuit of "your best self." Dharius has been poking a box called "You do you. Be true to yourself. Speak your truth. Become your best self." But as we look at culture that is embracing that message, despair, anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation is rampant. We'll unpack the disconnect with Dharius today, along with a discussion about identity and significance. Dharius says, "God will not honor the direction of our lives when we are living outside of our unique identity." In other words, God will not bless who we pretend to be. That's coming up in today's featured conversation. If you enjoy this episode with Dharius, I'm sure you'll also enjoy: 299: John Eldredge on Getting Underneath Burnout, Powerlessness, and How to Build Resilience 298: Jamie Winship on How Live Fearless in Your True Identity Episode Links: Dharius's Website | Instagram | Facebook | Buy Dharius's new book on Amazon!

This week on the podcast, our favorite guest (actually, our most popular guest of all time), Jamie Winship is back to talk about how to live fearlessly in your true identity. Of all the conversations we've had with Jamie, this one is the cornerstone.

A few months ago, I found the research and work of Dr. Casey Halpern, who is the Professor of Neurosurgery at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Halpern's research and clinical practice focus on using deep brain stimulation to treat compulsive and movement disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, eating disorders, as well as other neurologic conditions. My goal in speaking with Dr. Halpern was to understand the roots of compulsive behaviors and how they are related to anxiety and trauma, and my hope is that after listening, you'll receive greater education about this very relevant subject. Partner Spotlight: But first, if 2023 is the year you're going to launch a podcast, write a book, create a website, or start building any type of online presence, The Art of Leadership Academy has a free Mastermind to help you with exactly that.

This week, Tyler Staton joins us to talk about reviving a culture of prayer in a post-Christian world. Prayer is the source of Jesus's most astonishing miracles and the subject of Jesus's most audacious promises, and yet, most people--even most Bible-believing Christians--find prayer to be boring, obligatory, disappointing, confusing, or, most often, all of the above. If you've ever felt this way, today's conversation is hopefully going to turn your conceptions around.

This week on the podcast, author and popular speaker, Toni Collier joins us to talk about healing from trauma, EMDR, dumping spirituality and "Christian Buddhism," and why you can't heal yourself by yourself. After a lifetime of childhood trauma, navigating a toxic marriage and divorce, an unhealthy church, becoming a single parent and feeling betrayed, Toni felt shame-filled and used. Because of her brokenness, she believed she was unworthy and unqualified to have a life of meaning and purpose. Many of us have felt the same thing if we're honest. So, in today's conversation, we'll unpack the truth that leads to freedom.

Joining me this week is Diego Perez, otherwise known by his pen name, yung pueblo. Diego says, "Healing does not erase the past, and the point of healing is not to forget what has happened." As you probably know, I totally agree. You guys, scars tell a story, and scars form after healing happens. But too many of us unknowingly live life through emblematic "open wounds" of the soul. We've done so for so long that we don't recognize the dysfunction and pain for what it really is. What's the path out? And how do we begin the process of transformation? That's where we're headed in today's featured conversation.

Gary said, "Learning to live without what you once thought was a primary purpose of marriage is necessary to find happiness in marriage." That's obviously a huge statement. Therein is vision, expectations for outcomes, and factors for decision-making. So how do we do it? That's what Gary will unpack in this week's featured conversation.

If 90% of the population struggles with anxiety, what are we missing in our approach to understanding and treating it? This week, Dr. Wendy Suzuki joins us to talk about why anxiety just might be helpful in our growth. She said, "When you adopt strategies that harness the neural networks of anxiety, you open the door to activating your brain-body at an even deeper, more meaningful level. Instead of feeling at the mercy of anxiety, we can take charge of it in concrete ways. Anxiety becomes a tool to supercharge our brains and bodies in ways that will resound in every dimension of our lives." Dr. Wendy Suzuki is a Professor of Neural Science and Psychology in the Center for Neural Science at New York University. She received her undergraduate degree in physiology and human anatomy at the University of California, Berkeley in 1987 studying with Prof. Marion C. Diamond, a leader in the field of brain plasticity. She went on to earn her Ph.D. in Neuroscience from U.C. San Diego in 1993 and completed her doctoral fellowship at the National Institutes of Health before accepting her faculty position at New York University in 1998. In addition, she is a bestselling author and has graced TED stages across the globe.

Change is inevitable in life. But how do you know when it's time to make a change? This week, leadership consultant and author, Jeff Henderson, joins us to provide a masterclass on change and dealing with uncertainty. He says, "What's behind you has shaped you, good and bad. What's behind you becomes dangerous when it shackles you. What's behind you becomes helpful when you embrace where you are as a starting point, not a conclusion." Jeff Henderson has spent decades in executive leadership and is here today to help prepare you for your next inevitable change in life. And here's how I want to set up the conversation, with more wisdom from Jeff. He says, "We didn't sign up for easy. We signed up for worthwhile."

Our guest today, Jason Wilson, is a prolific coach to many men, young and old, across the nation. He says, "Strength depends on the physical ability of the body, but power is based on the spiritual rule over the body." For decades, Jason Wilson was losing the war within—the internal battle that many men wage daily but were never taught how to win. As a result, he could not combat his toxic thoughts and emotions. Instead, he was conquered by them and communicated without composure—hurting those he loved and himself. This went on until he renewed his mind by releasing years of past trauma. His life and relationships were transformed when he learned how to master his emotions and express them with self-control. In the process, Jason became a better husband, father, and leader. And today, you'll hear from Jason and learn how to do the same. If you enjoy this episode with Jason, I'm sure you'll also enjoy: 255: Triggered and Insecure? It's the Thing Beneath the Thing. (feat.

This week, we're revisiting a riveting conversation I had with Dr. Anna Lembke, Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University. We're living in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, and social media. Dr. Lembke says that "the increased numbers, variety, and potency is staggering. The smartphone is the modern-day hypodermic needle, delivering digital dopamine 24/7 for a wired generation. As such we've all become vulnerable to compulsive overconsumption." So today, Dr. Lembke is going to explain why the relentless pursuit of pleasure leads to pain…and what to do about it.

This week, we're revisiting a conversation with my good friend, psychiatrist, and author, Dr. Curt Thompson. About today's conversation, Curt said, "Most of our well-intended attempts to counter the storms of our inner and outer lives involve identifying our problems and devising solutions for them. But in our hurry to diagnose and treat our diseases of the soul, we are often outrun by the very fear that is driving us to identify and resolve them." This is perhaps one of the most emotional episodes I've ever recorded, but there's a holistic approach to understanding shame, loss, trauma, and our souls' deepest desire that I trust will bring a fresh perspective and hope to you today, so buckle-up.

According to today's guest, Ben Stuart, the pastor of Passion City Church in Washington D.C., a lot of us underestimate the complexity of what's happening beneath the surface in our soul and spirit and then never find peace and victory that's sustainable. That's why he argues that we must fight for rest and why struggle in life is so necessary for our development. For Ben, this struggle, this fight, was true when he had to lay face down and lived sick each day because of the side effects of the medications after major back surgery. And it took a toll on his emotional health. You'll hear more about that and more in today's conversation with Ben Stuart.
