Trevor Talks

Dr. Sam D. Kim is a pastor, author, and ethicist who is offering insight and care into some of the most essential gaps in the mental health conversation.   When working in a prestigious position as research fellow in Global Health and Social Medicine at the Center for Bioethics at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Kim began noticing the deep burn-out impacting many healthcare workers. He found that these highly-educated, socially celebrated individuals were often experiencing intense emotional lows. The result was a lot of work digging into the mechanics of burnout — and how to repair it.   Dr. Kim’s work is born of a deep personal faith that developed through experiencing God’s compassionate healing hand after his own trauma in the process of his family’s relocation to America from Korea. That faith is explored in depth through A Holy Haunting: Why Faith Isn’t a Leap but a Series of Staggers from One Safe Place to Another. This episode digs into the book’s intriguing title while continuing the Trevor Talks mission of shedding light on the hardest mental health conversations.   Get A Holy Haunting now on Amazon.   This show is sponsored by lifeaudio: https://www.lifeaudio.com/   If you’re struggling and in need of additional support, visit: HeartSupport Death2Life Teen Hopeline Beneath the Skin To Write Love On Her Arms   Follow Dr. Sam Kim: samdkim.com LinkedIn Instagram Facebook Twitter   For more Trevor Talks: CLICK HERE Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Archetypes Collide is becoming one of the most talked-about names in hard rock — before their debut album even releases. With unswervingly honest lyrics and a variety of genre archetypes smashed together for one monster sound, Archetypes Collide’s forthcoming self-titled album (due March 31) promises to hit home for a variety of listeners.   The heartbeat of these songs comes from singer and primary songwriter Kyle Pastor’s own personal and emotional process. Trying to determine where he fit in and what piece music had in his identity was a long road for the church-kid-turned rocker. These days, Kyle has settled into his creative passions, his role as a husband and a dad, and work as a creative director at his church.    But even with that foundation and the sudden explosive growth of Archetypes Collide, Kyle is no stranger to anxiety and doubt. His process of pushing through? Community, solidarity, and acceptance of who he was created to be.   Are you struggling with your own questions about mental health, identity, and life’s purpose?

Everyone has favorite songs. But not everyone gets the chance to be in a band with the same people who wrote those favorite songs.   That’s Brett Hellings’ story. As the voice that carries supergroup Hellings, Brett heads a lineup that includes Tommy Henriksen (Alice Cooper), Richard Fortus (Guns N’ Roses), Buck Johnson (Aerosmith), Kenny Aronoff (Smashing Pumpkins) and Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big). Together, they took the unusual opportunity afforded by the pandemic in order to create thunderous classic rock music that is both nostalgic and fresh.    We talk about that music on this episode, including their first single “Kill Me to Keep Loving You.” But more importantly, we get an honest look at how a kid from Pennsylvania who grew up steeped in classic rock not only met his heroes— but is making music with them.   Find “Kill Me to Keep Loving You” at https://linktr.ee/hellings.    This show is sponsored by lifeaudio: https://www.lifeaudio.com/   If you’re struggling and in need of support, visit: HeartSupport Death2Life Teen Hopeline Beneath the Skin To Write Love On Her Arms   Follow Hellings: Website Instagram Facebook YouTube Twitter TikTok Apple Music Spotify   For more Trevor Talks: Spotify Apple Music Google Podcasts Instagram Facebook Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
