    EP 187 | Why Kids With Parents End Up in Orphanages (Hard Truth)

    Ade Olowo moved into a Nigerian orphanage as a "house uncle" to 14 boys when he was supposed to become an engineer. Now he works across Africa, bringing governments, nonprofits, and orphanage leaders to the same table, people who often see each other as the enemy. The statistic that changes everything: 80% of children in orphanages have at least one living parent. So why are they there? The answers involve poverty, stigma, witchcraft accusations, and systems that were never designed to reunite families. Ade shares stories from the ground, including children burned and accused, leaders who apologized for shutting down orphanages without listening, and the slow, patient work of changing minds across cultures. This conversation will expand your perspective on what it means to protect the vulnerable, and why the fastest solution isn't always the right one.

    EP 185 | Trapped in Your Past? The Miracle Might Be Your Future

    You've survived something. Maybe you've even called it a miracle. But if you're still replaying it in your mind, still feeling guilty for wanting more, or still stuck in the identity of someone it happened to, there's something God wants you to see that you haven't yet. Rae breaks down the most common questions about miracle moments: how to know if what you experienced actually was one, why trauma and breaking points aren't as different as you think, and how to stop living like a victim of your past when God is trying to use you as a vessel for your future. This isn't about summarizing your story. It's about letting Him rewrite your relationship to it. If you've been waiting for permission to want something bigger, or if you're tired of feeling defined by what happened instead of who you're becoming, this episode will shift something. Key Timestamps [00:02:15] How to know if what happened to you was really a miracle moment   [00:09:18] Why do you feel guilty for wanting something more after everything you've been through   [00:11:45] How to stop feeling like a victim of your circumstances   [00:14:20] Rebuilding your identity: Where to start and who God says you are  Memorable Quotes "It could be whatever your level of tolerance is. I think God knew me well enough to say 'I'm gonna kinda give her something a little big and intense.'" – Rae Irelan [00:06:30]  "If you are coming to God as a victim, there's so much that you're actually missing, and there's a piece of the fruitfulness of your faith that is not going to get lit on fire." – Rae Irelan [00:12:15]  Connect With the Host Website: https://raeirelan.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/raeirelan/ Join the Evolved Influence Academy Community today! https://www.skool.com/evolved-influence-academy/about?ref=28c7243ce169469eb9979bbc4226a76a Produced by Evolved Podcasting: www.evolvedpodcasting.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    EP 183 | The #1 Reason High Performers Stay Stuck: Isolation + Burnout

    Being stuck isn't about lacking ideas. It's about a lack of connection. Jack Hinman, psychologist and co-founder of Engage Young Adult Transitions, breaks down the real drivers behind burnout and stagnation: disconnection and loss of control. He shares why your network matters more than your intellect, how bilateral stimulation on a bike ride can unlock deeper conversations, and why healthy hazing might be the resiliency skill we've forgotten how to teach. This conversation doesn't hand you a productivity hack. It hands you a mirror. Jack and Rae explore the intersection of friendship, intentionality, and the discipline required to protect what actually fuels you. If you've been grinding harder but getting the same results, this episode will shift how you think about showing up in your work, your relationships, and your life. You'll walk away with one clear truth: connection is the fuel. Everything else is just noise. Key Timestamps [00:05:42] Why bike rides create better coaching moments than conference rooms   [00:09:18] The hazing principle: resiliency, ego strength, and social pragmatics   [00:18:45] The two things that drive being stuck: burnout and disconnection   [00:24:00] Never undervalue the role of relationships in your success   Memorable Quotes [00:18:45] "One of the two things that really drive being stuck is feeling burnout or feeling disconnected. The thing about burnout is that you put in more input and you get the same results, which creates burnout, which creates being stuck." – Jack Hinman [00:21:35] "Being stuck means you're not maybe really fully accessing your resources. A lot of times it's being disciplined about fun, being disciplined about taking time off, being intentional about your day." – Jack Hinman [00:24:18] "When it comes down to life, the most important thing in life is relationships. It can be fuel to your fire, is feeling connected." – Jack Hinman About Jack Hinman Jack Hinman is a psychologist and the Co-Founder of Engage Young Adult Transitions in Cedar City, Utah.

    EP 181 | Your Brain Isn’t Torturing You. It’s Protecting a Miracle Moment

    Your brain keeps dragging you back to the same moment. The same scene. The same conversation. You've tried everything to make it stop, but it won't. You think you're stuck in the past, but something else is happening. Rae shares a profound shift that happened in her prayer space, one that changed everything about how she sees those repeating moments. It's not about fixing what happened. It's not about finally understanding the lesson. It's about recognizing the invitation you didn't know you were receiving. If you've been caught in a mental replay loop, wondering why you can't move forward, this episode will help you see the miracle moment that's been hiding in the repetition all along. Key Timestamps [00:02:15] The broken record: when your brain won't stop replaying what happened  [00:04:30] Why your mind isn't torturing you, it's protecting you  [00:06:45] The shift from "Why did this happen?" to "What do You want to birth through this?"  [00:09:20] "God, I want to wash your feet" and the response that changed everything  [00:12:10] How to create a sacred pause and hear God in your own story  [00:14:00] The miracle is in the aftermath, not just the moment itself Memorable Quotes [00:04:42] "Your mind is not trying to just torture you in repeating the miracle moments that have happened. It's actually working on protecting you, so that way you can take the time to fully understand why God put you on that path." – Rae Irelan [00:08:15] "This is not just a backwards analysis of what had happened, this is actually to help me have clear, more intentional vision and guidance for what's coming next and what's ahead." – Rae Irelan Connect With the Host Website: https://raeirelan.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/raeirelan/ Join the Evolved Influence Academy Community today! https://www.skool.com/evolved-influence-academy/about?ref=28c7243ce169469eb9979bbc4226a76a Produced by Evolved Podcasting: www.evolvedpodcasting.com Learn more about your ad choices.
