Stress Management & Spiritual Counseling: Real Help vs. Platitudes - Deacon Randy Kiel

The Catholic Morning Show

Deacon Randy Kiel, president of Kardia Counseling, explains the dangerous progression from stress to distress to duress to decompensation and equips listeners with actionable ways to support people in crisis. He challenges empty platitudes like "cheer up" and "it will get better," offering instead practical spiritual and emotional guidance that actually reduces stress rather than exacerbating it. This segment is essential listening for anyone in ministry, caregiving, counseling, or simply wanting to better support family and friends through hardship.
