Fighting for Heart

This is an extremely personal episode for Rob Murray and his story as he connect with Jeff Schulte from Tin Man, a past guide and now friend, mentor, and coworker.  Many people live life alone, trapped in the prison of their own intellect, morality, and self-will. Despite being hard-wired for intimate relationships, our fear and shame keep us detached from our own hearts and therefore detached from the ones we love. We learn to cope. This is not living fully, this is barely surviving. If you want your heart back and more for your life, listen in as Jeff tells you the story of the Tin Man. No matter your situation, this conversation offers you a few steps you can take to start the journey home. 

Anxiety can often feel like you have a thousand-pound boulder hanging over your head, ready to crush you at any given time. In this episode on the Talk Of Change podcast, Rob chats with Jonathan Rios, focusing on this very relatable topic. We can often fuse who we are with what we do. Threats that challenge this arrangement can produce excessive amounts of fear and anxiety that can shake or cripple us. What could it look like to face your anxious dragons?

In this episode, Rob talks with Troy Murphy, a former marine and chaplain for the Green Bay Packers. There are huge pressures on many of us at work to win! Much like the NFL, winning is often defined by whatever brings in the most money. For players to make the NFL is a massive deal, but then to stay in the game, becomes an entirely new set of different pressures. Join Rob and Troy in this episode to hear more about how to become a researcher of your own story, learn more about what you feel, and why you do what you do.

Life can be extremely challenging. It goes a long way in the healing journey to offer respect and purpose to those parts of ourselves that have gone off to war and need to return home. In this episode, Rob Murray interviews Janina Tiner about her experience as a certified IFS, Grief, and EMDR Specialist. Together they deliver conversation and encouragement that will offer you the opportunity to live your life with more calmness, curiosity, clarity, compassion, confidence, courage, creativity, and connection.

No matter how much you’re attracted to someone’s positives, you’ll eventually encounter their negatives when you get in close. In fact, the closer the connection, the more likely it is that friction will occur. But all conflict is not created equal. Drawing on years of counseling experience, Dr. Alan Godwin offers conversation and advice to effectively deal with conflict in various relational situations, learn the different methods needed for handling unreasonable people, establish good communication and healthy boundaries, counter old conflict patterns when they return, and get back on track. Make your good relationships better and handle your difficult relationships more capably by implementing these principles and steps. 

Rob Murray opens up the Talk Of Change podcast with a challenging conversation with Phil Herndon about the common challenges, realities, and opportunities for leaders who have reached the end of themselves. Working harder and smarter no longer works anymore and something has to change!
