In this episode of The Non Sermon Podcast, we’re diving headfirst into the chaos of the drama triangle—the roles of victim, rescuer, and persecutor that keep us stuck in toxic relationship patterns. But don’t worry, we’re not staying on the rollercoaster for long. With transparency as our antidote, we’ll explore how to break free from these roles and step into healthier dynamics as creators, coaches, and challengers.

Packed with relatable stories, ancient wisdom from the Tao Te Ching, and practical tips, this episode will help you uncover where you’re stuck, own your power, and create relationships built on truth and mutual respect. Whether you’re navigating friendships, family dynamics, or romantic connections, this episode is your roadmap to a drama-free life.

In this first episode of the Let’s Be Real: A Journey Through Truth, Trust, and Transparency series, we’re diving into self-honesty with Keeping It Real: How to Be Honest with Yourself (No Filter Needed). Join me, Todd, as we explore why being truthful with ourselves is the foundation for authentic connections, personal growth, and lasting peace. With the holidays approaching, it’s the perfect time to reflect on where we’re holding back and how embracing our truth can lead to deeper clarity and joy. Tune in for practical insights, personal reflections, and mindful moments to guide you on your journey to living a more honest life.

As we head into the holiday season, gratitude is on everyone’s mind—but what does it really mean to be grateful? In this episode, ‘Can You Pass the Gratitude Gravy?,’ we’re diving into the transformative power of gratitude and how it can add richness to our lives, much like gravy enhances a holiday meal. We’ll explore gratitude as more than just a feeling, but as a practice that can ground us, heal us, and deepen our connections with others.

Join me as we discuss how gratitude can serve as an anchor in tough times, a way to appreciate life’s smallest moments, and a bridge to self-compassion. We’ll also talk about the balance between gratitude and authenticity, and why it’s okay if gratitude doesn’t come easily all the time. Get ready for some reflections, personal stories, and insights to bring a little more warmth and appreciation into your life this season.
