The Rachel Roth Show

Rachel sits down with Donna Winship from Identity Exchange, whose incredible experiences and insights have long inspired her. Having completed Donna’s course Knowing Rediscovered, Rachel has witnessed firsthand the transformative power of Donna's teachings on faith and identity. 

Rachel is thrilled to share Donna's impactful experiences and wisdom, knowing her listeners will find this episode enlightening and empowering. Donna’s approach to faith goes beyond traditional practices. 

She emphasizes experiencing God in a personal and transformative way. This means moving past just reading but instead developing a relationship where you actively engage with his presence in your life. It's about rediscovering a personal connection that leads to an inner change and a deeper understanding of your true identity.

Donna explains that we often let the world and our past experiences dictate our perceptions. Instead, she encourages us to be still and know God. Understanding your identity in God is a journey. 

Once you know who you are in God, the real transformation begins. It’s about changing the way you think and understanding that failure is a part of the learning process, not a sign of God's absence.

Donna reminds us that we don’t need to have everything together to approach God. Her insights on identity, faith, and living fearlessly have inspired Rachel to deepen her relationship with God and embrace her identity.

Have you ever felt like political conversations are tearing your relationships apart? If so, you’re not alone.

In a raw and hopeful conversation, Rachel and author, speaker, and storyteller Carlos Whittaker tackled how to stay connected despite differing political views. Carlos, known for his viral message "don't stand on issues…walk with people," shared his unique perspective on the growing divide in our country.

Carlos believes the problem isn't new—division has always existed—but our constant exposure to opinions, especially through our phones, has made it feel more intense. He encourages us to stop standing so firmly on issues and instead walk with others, even when we disagree. 

Carlos’s insights remind us that we can have our opinions without letting them destroy our relationships. Through empathy and understanding, we can bring back meaningful conversations and connection—even when it feels impossible.

Carlos also shared his experience of disconnecting from technology for seven weeks, living with monks and the Amish. During that time, he rediscovered the power of real conversations and the importance of creating safe spaces for disagreement. In a world full of distractions, it's a lesson we all need.

This conversation offers hope for anyone struggling with political differences in their relationships, showing how empathy and connection can help keep those differences from causing division.

Human trafficking is a global crisis, affecting millions of children, women, and men who are exploited for their bodies and labor. It’s modern-day slavery, happening in every corner of the world, and it’s growing at an alarming rate.

To dive deeper into this issue, Rachel sat down for an incredible conversation with Natalie from A21 , one of the largest organizations fighting human trafficking. A21 operates in 19 countries and is dedicated to combating trafficking through prevention, protection, prosecution, and partnership. 

Natalie shared crucial insights into what human trafficking really is and how each of us can play a role in fighting it. Human trafficking isn’t just a problem in far-off countries; it’s happening in our own communities. It affects boys, girls, women, and men, regardless of age or background. Which is why it’s so important for each of us to be aware of the signs and know how to respond.

Every individual has the power to contribute to the fight against human trafficking. Visit A21.org to find out how you can get involved and make a difference. Your actions, no matter how small, can help bring an end to modern-day slavery.

Many of us find ourselves at a crossroads where making a change feels impossible, like we’ve gone too far down the wrong path. But what if it’s not too late to start living differently? In today’s episode, Rachel welcomes Jeff, author of Dude and Duder. Jeff shares his inspiring journey of transformation, offering encouragement for anyone feeling stuck or hesitant about making changes in their life.

Jeff’s transformation began with simple walks with his dog, which opened his eyes to a new way of thinking. Stuck in a routine of unhealthy habits and low motivation, Jeff’s relationships and well-being were suffering. During these walks, Jeff began to notice the little things he’d previously overlooked. This newfound awareness led him to question his lifestyle, igniting the desire for change.

Jeff’s story is a reminder that change doesn’t happen overnight. He started by adopting new habits, gradually increasing his activity levels, and paying more attention to his physical health. Each small step he took built momentum, encouraging him to continue pushing himself forward. As Jeff’s physical health improved, so did his outlook on life.

By taking control of his own story, he found the courage to break free from the leash of self-doubt and fear. His journey is a reminder that our perceptions, not our circumstances, are often what hold us back. Jeff shows us that it’s never too late to make a change.

Regardless of our age or past experiences, we all have the ability to redefine our lives and create new patterns of growth. By choosing to see the world differently and acting on that vision, we begin to realize our potential and inspire others to do the same.

Have you ever caught yourself sinking into the comparison trap and feeling that familiar pang of jealousy? It turns out, this emotion we’ve all battled with can be a powerful tool for growth if we learn to understand it.

Rachel’s conversation with Shannen, a Relationship Jealousy Expert, opens the door to a new way of thinking about jealousy. Often seen as a shameful emotion to be avoided, Shannen challenges this view, urging us to see jealousy not as the problem but as a solution—an indicator that something deeper is at play.

Jealousy isn’t just an ugly emotion; it’s a signal that something within us needs attention. Shannen explains that jealousy often stems from past traumas or unresolved emotions. By staying present and asking ourselves why we feel this way, we can peel back the layers and understand the root of our feelings. This introspection helps shift our focus from others to ourselves, turning jealousy into an opportunity for healing and growth.

Everyone experiences jealousy at some point in life. By recognizing it as a signal rather than a flaw, we can use it to deepen our self-awareness and live more fully in the present. Shannen’s insights offer a fresh perspective on this often-misunderstood emotion, showing us how to transform jealousy from a source of pain into an opportunity for personal growth.

Sometimes, just hearing the words "public speaking" is enough to make your palms sweat and your heart race. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. In fact, 74% of people share this fear. But today, Rachel is excited to bring you an episode that might just change how you see public speaking—and yourself.

Rachel had the pleasure of sitting down with Lori, a dear personal friend and an incredible coach who helps professional women find their voices. Lori has taught Rachel so much about public speaking, and knows she'll bring the same value to you. She specializes in helping women confidently say "yes" when asked to speak, whether in a personal or corporate setting. 

Lori’s journey into public speaking wasn’t flawless—her first time speaking was far from perfect. Yet, she views that experience as a crucial step in her growth, showing that even the most successful speakers start somewhere.

Lori’s approach is rooted in positivity and authenticity. She understands that fear is a natural response, but she’s here to remind us that it doesn’t have to hold us back. Lori offers practical strategies to help reframe these negative thoughts. She teaches women to recognize their own authority and to understand that their stories are powerful tools.

Lori’s mission is clear: she wants more women to embrace their fears, not be paralyzed by them. Today’s episode is more than just a discussion about public speaking, it’s a call to action.

It challenges us to move beyond our fears, to embrace our authenticity, and to share our voices with the world. Because, as Lori so beautifully puts it, your story is your authority.

Short form video content is the trend right now, and it’s not going anywhere. But how can you leverage this trend to make impactful content that resonates without constantly stressing out about low views and the algorithm? 

In today’s episode, Rachel sat down with Hilary Billings, a powerhouse in the field and co-founder of Attentioneers, to talk all things strategy.

Creating viral videos is not a straight line journey. According to Hilary, successful videos need to leverage certain formulas. With 20 million new videos going live daily, the saturation is real. So how do you make your content stand out?

Video feels personal. It’s a way for people to get to know you. However, it’s not just about what you do but how you do it. Listen in as Hilary shares the three things that every piece of content you create needs.

Don’t make content from a place of scarcity. The energy you put behind your video matters. Remember, you can’t out strategize bad content. 

So, release the fear, get out there, and start making an impact with your videos.
