    The Quiet Call: Discovering Purpose in a Noisy World

    Send us a text Have you ever felt adrift, questioning not just where you're headed, but why? That persistent feeling of being meant for something more isn't just restlessness—it's the quiet call of purpose tugging at your consciousness. In this deeply reflective conversation, Trey and Bonita explore the nature of purpose as an evolving invitation rather than a fixed destination. They challenge the common misconception that purpose must be tied to career achievement, suggesting instead that purpose connects to our very existence. "I don't think purpose is solely linked to your job at all," Trey observes. "I think your job is linked to your purpose." This subtle but profound distinction liberates us from the pressure of finding the "perfect career" and opens us to discovering meaning across all dimensions of life. The hosts tackle how modern technology complicates our search for authentic purpose. In a world of carefully constructed online personas, finding your true calling requires radical honesty with yourself. As Trey notes, "To find that purpose, you have to start off with being true and real with yourself." The conversation weaves through practical approaches to purpose-finding, including the undervalued practice of journaling, the critical importance of mentorship, and how community connections guide us toward our unique contributions. Bonita offers a beautiful metaphor, describing purpose as branches on a tree—stemming from one foundation but extending in multiple directions throughout our lives. Perhaps most comforting is their acknowledgment that purpose isn't always comfortable. Growth inherently involves discomfort, and setbacks are part of the journey. Yet each step, however small, contributes to the "larger tapestry of shared human experience." Whether you're questioning your direction or seeking deeper fulfillment, this episode offers both practical wisdom and soulful encouragement for your unique path. Listen, reflect, and consider this weekend: What would it look like to intentionally practice what you believe might be your purpose, even in small ways? Your journey of purpose awaits. https://leosliberation.buzzsprout.com https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563379214115&sk=about

    Soul Searching: The First Steps Toward Genuine Spiritual Connection

    Send us a text The search for deeper meaning has never been more crucial than in today's noisy world. In this heartfelt conversation, we unpack the differences and surprising similarities between structured faith and personal spirituality, discovering how these paths can beautifully complement each other rather than conflict. Drawing from our own journeys—from childhood church experiences to adult spiritual awakenings—we explore what triggers those profound moments when we look beyond ourselves. Whether through crisis, personal loss, or simply witnessing someone else's peaceful existence, these catalysts often mark the beginning of our most significant growth. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we discuss how community shapes belief. Can spirituality flourish in isolation? Does organized religion require collective practice? We challenge the "lone wolf" mentality that pervades modern thinking and reveal how quality connections—even with just one or two trusted souls—can transform our spiritual development. Most powerfully, we address those internal barriers that keep us from deeper connection. That voice insisting "I don't need help" or "It's probably not worth trying" might be the very thing holding back your spiritual evolution. Through practices like meditation, prayer, journaling, and intentional community-building, we offer practical ways to navigate your unique journey. Whether you're questioning long-held beliefs, starting fresh after years of spiritual drought, or simply curious about connecting with something greater than yourself, this episode provides compassionate guidance without judgment. Your journey matters—every twist, every doubt, every moment of clarity—and we're honored to walk alongside you. https://leosliberation.buzzsprout.com https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563379214115&sk=about

    The Hidden Cost of Weekend Hustle Culture: Finding Your Balance

    Send us a text The weekend—sacred time for rest or untapped opportunity for productivity? That's the question at the heart of our exploration into weekend work culture and its impact on our lives, careers, and wellbeing. Working hard for something we love is passion, but what happens when that passion begins consuming the time meant for recovery and connection? With 70% of Americans now working at least one weekend monthly, we're witnessing a fundamental shift in how we structure our lives and define success. This phenomenon raises critical questions about sustainability, mental health, and what truly constitutes a meaningful life. Through examining diverse perspectives—from career advisors who highlight the flexibility weekend work can offer single parents and caregivers, to entrepreneurs advocating for the "15-minute weekend hustle" that creates "success momentum," to researchers documenting concerning links between weekend work and poor mental health outcomes—we uncover the nuanced reality behind this modern dilemma. Is weekend work your deliberate strategy for getting ahead, or has it become an unquestioned habit slowly eroding your personal life? Leadership experts like Jason Fried challenge the glorification of constant availability, suggesting that companies demanding nights and weekends have management problems, not employee dedication. This perspective shifts responsibility from individual workers to systemic workplace cultures that fail to respect boundaries. Yet the personal responsibility remains: how will you protect your time while still pursuing your goals? We offer four powerful reflections to guide your decisions: examine what flexibility truly means for your life; weigh success against the risk of burnout; establish clear, respectful boundaries; and use your time with intention rather than default. Because in a world that never stops, the most revolutionary act might be knowing when to pause. Your time is precious and fleeting. Will your weekend be your secret weapon for success, or will you reclaim it as essential space for the life that happens beyond your inbox? The choice—and your liberation—begins with you. https://leosliberation.buzzsprout.com https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563379214115&sk=about

    Gossip, Personality Types, and Maintaining Your Sanity at Work

    Send us a text Have you ever felt trapped in a workplace drama that could rival any reality TV show? The office ecosystem is filled with fascinating personalities, each bringing their own unique energy to the table. From the relentless overachiever who makes you question your own productivity to the office gossiper who mysteriously knows everyone's business before they do themselves. This deep dive into workplace dynamics uncovers the 15 distinct personality types you'll encounter at work and provides practical strategies for navigating each one. We explore the overachiever, the slacker, the gossiper, the know-it-all, the people pleaser, and ten other archetypes that make up the complex tapestry of workplace relationships. For each personality, we offer specific approaches to maintain your sanity while maximizing collaboration. But personalities are just the beginning—we also tackle the magnetic power of gossip and its dual nature as both a connector and divider. While positive gossip can elevate morale and create bonds through shared celebration, negative chatter breeds distrust and fractures teams. Drawing from personal experience, I share how I handled harmful rumors about my position without letting them consume my energy or disrupt my workplace relationships. The most valuable takeaway? The practical tools for transforming any workplace into a harmonious environment. Learn how to embrace open forums for communication, set firm boundaries against negativity, and nurture empathy even with the most challenging colleagues. By choosing clarity over conjecture and lifting others through positive interaction, you create a ripple effect that changes entire workplace cultures. Ready to roar with confidence in every professional situation? Join me on this journey to workplace liberation. Follow, rate, and share your own experiences as we continue exploring leadership, personal growth, and authentic living. Remember—your approach to workplace dynamics doesn't just affect your day-to-day happiness, it shapes the environment for everyone around you. https://leosliberation.buzzsprout.com https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563379214115&sk=about

    The Liberation of Personal Growth: Breaking Free from Old Patterns

    Send us a text "Make every effort to change things you do not like. If you cannot make a change, change the way you've been thinking." Maya Angelou's powerful words set the tone for a deeply personal exploration of transformation, spirituality, and authentic living. As I navigate my 40s, I've embarked on a journey to connect more deeply with myself both spiritually and physically. What began as nightly Bible readings has evolved into something more profound—a recognition that spirituality transcends rigid rules and represents a personal connection with the divine. This revelation prompted me to examine the relationship between spirituality and religion, inspired by Kenneth Wong's thought-provoking article outlining their differences. While spirituality offers a personal, flexible path focused on present-moment awareness, religion provides community, structure, and shared traditions. Rather than viewing them as opposing forces, I've discovered the value in blending both approaches—honoring my individual spiritual journey while drawing wisdom from established traditions. This balanced perspective extends beyond spiritual matters, influencing how I approach personal wellness and daily habits. By hiring a personal trainer and breaking unhealthy cycles, I'm investing in meaningful changes that enhance my life rather than merely existing through it. As spring breathes new life into the world around us, I challenge you to consider what you might be holding onto that no longer serves you—whether it's a limiting belief, an outdated mindset, or a draining habit. True liberation comes from evolving into your most authentic self, finding balance between who you are and who you aspire to be. What small shift might unlock your untapped potential? Your journey toward transformation begins now, with each step forward representing growth toward liberation. https://leosliberation.buzzsprout.com https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563379214115&sk=about

    When Falling Down Becomes the Best Way Forward

    Send us a text A slice of humble pie can be the universe's way of asking us to shed our old skin and grow into something new and refreshed. That's exactly what happened to me recently, prompting this deep dive into how we process setbacks at different stages of life. Remember being in your twenties when a significant setback felt like the apocalypse? That's the beautiful thing about perspective—it evolves with age. What once might have derailed me for months now lingers for just days. Not because the pain is any less sharp, but because resilience provides a different lens through which to view our challenges. The American Heart Association's framework for redefining failure offers practical wisdom for anyone wrestling with disappointment. Don't dwell on past mistakes—your brain has already recorded the incident and is working behind the scenes to help you avoid similar situations. Focus on future goals, using perceived failures as fuel for motivation. Don't avoid confronting failure, but don't stubbornly persist with failing approaches either. The definition often attributed to Einstein rings true: doing the same thing repeatedly while expecting different results is indeed a form of madness. Perhaps most importantly, adjust quickly by viewing setbacks as experiments rather than personal deficiencies. We're all works in progress, constantly cycling through integration and disintegration that humbles us and connects us more deeply with the world. No matter our age or achievements, growth never stops—it's the lifeblood of our existence and what keeps life interesting. Ready to transform your relationship with setbacks? Follow Leo's Liberation on your favorite platform, leave a rating or comment, and join me Friday as we continue this journey together. https://leosliberation.buzzsprout.com https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563379214115&sk=about
