Can I Getta Amen

Grab your pen and notepad because we drop lots of favorite quotes in this episode...We discuss whether or not others can truly hurt us with their words and actions or is it in our hands how we truly feel about it. The important thing is that we remember that we can only control ourselves, not other people, places and things. We see this most lived out in the 12 step recovery program of AA so we discuss that along with the Serenity Prayer. We also spend some time chatting about the struggle of surrender....it's hard, right...and the importance of being friends with different people and perspectives. This episode is filled with lots of goodness for your soul. Thanks always for tuning in and showing us all the love!

12 steps of AA can be followed by anyone, not just those who suffer from addiction. Replace control over alcohol with people, places and things...Check them out here.

Full version of the Serenity Prayer.

Do you ever listen to a song and remember exactly what life was like when you first heard it? In a fun and light-hearted Episode  4, we chat about music and the moments we are taken back to. We dive into some of the amazing and hilarious feedback we've received over the past 2 weeks. We take some time to laugh at ourselves and remember how important it is that we not take ourselves too seriously. This episode is all about "weekend vibes" in the truest sense of the words. We hope you get to kick back with us and enjoy!

In episode 3, we examine and discuss our true colors and how our individual personalities/temperaments can sometimes force us to set unrealistic expectations for ourselves and others. These unrealistic expectations can cause that nightmare "too much and not enough" battle within ourselves. We also discuss the importance of shedding our armor during those high stress times in order to find true peace in those moments. Enjoy!

Have you ever felt that tug on your heart? The one that calls you to do something big...Something that would force you out of your comfort zone? A tug that calls you to pursue your true passion? In the first episode of "Can I Getta Amen", we dive into that exact feeling and what brought us together for this project. We discuss the beauty of living every moment of life with intention and how we can use each of those moment to impact other's lives. No act is ever too small. One intentional moment at a time, we have the opportunity to influence the world around us to be a better place every singe day. We talk about these things, not because we do them perfectly, but because we struggle just like everyone to remember these things in our every day, busy lives. Joins us, we hope you will stay with us for a while and learn with us as we pursue our passion for leaving people better than when we found them.
