Practical Tips for Living Well When the World Feels Dark

Portal Panel Preview with Leslie Powers, LCSW, and Chris Jantzen

The world can feel heavy. Dark moments come without warning, and sometimes it’s hard to know how to keep going.

You might find yourself wondering how to live well when everything around you feels off balance — when news cycles bring more confusion than clarity, when what’s happening feels like it’s pressing in from all sides.

It’s not just about the big, obvious challenges. Sometimes it’s the small, everyday struggles that pile up — the uncertainty, the frustration, the sense that things aren’t as they should be. Maybe you feel disconnected from the people around you, or maybe you’re wrestling with questions that don’t have easy answers. In times like these, it’s natural to feel unsteady, even lost.

But what if there was a way to navigate all this without losing yourself?

What if living well didn’t mean ignoring the darkness, but learning how to move through it with intention and clarity? How do you find footing when the ground beneath you feels shaky?

On December 10 at 7 pm Eastern, we invite you to join a Portal Panel conversation with Leslie Powers, LCSW, and Chris Jantzen. They’ll share practical insights grounded in Natural Law — ideas and tools to help you navigate difficult times with clarity and strength.

It’s about discovering tools and perspectives that help you stay rooted, even as the storm rages around you.

Practical tips for a worthwhile life in an evil world

— A Portal Panel Conversation with Leslie Powers, LCSW, and Chris Jantzen

December 10, 7 pm Eastern (Zoom)

Leslie Powers, LCSW, is a clinical social worker and trauma consultant who combines psychology, natural healing, and Natural Law to support deep healing and personal sovereignty. With decades of experience, Leslie helps people find their own strength and freedom. She organizes the Freedom Under Natural Law conferences and founded AliveThrive.life.

Chris Jantzen is a Natural Law teacher, facilitator, and motivational coach. As host of the End Evil Podcast, he challenges false beliefs and inspires personal responsibility. Chris’s work focuses on the inner and outer effort it takes to create real change — starting with facing yourself honestly. He emphasizes cooperation, trust, and the role each person plays in building a just society.

This conversation isn’t about ignoring the hard realities. It’s about meeting them head-on, with practical steps that help you live a meaningful life anyway. Leslie and Chris will explore how Natural Law can be a guide through dark times, offering tools to stay grounded and empowered.

We’ll be on Zoom at 7 pm Eastern, December 10.
