I’m a firm believer in calling my children and the people in my life forth in their giftings. But without an environment of healing one cannot grow in their gifts.

I think “who sits at your table” is one of the most important decisions you will make. In this episode I talk about what loving another person looks like, how I’m so tired of the “don’t judge me” mentality, how friendship does not equal a place at my table, and how your table is not a ridiculous “click.”

I’m a firm believer that you don’t have to invite EVERYONE into your life. I believe in being loving and kind, but that does not mean you have to introduce all those who play a role in your life to your table. I honestly don’t think it’s Biblical. I’ve come to realize I have not always been nor will always continue to be someone who should be invited to all tables. Be purposeful about seeking those who create growth and truth.

It’s hard for me to admit when I’m hurt. I don’t want to seem weak or as if I’m under someone’s control. My hurt often comes out in the form of anger.

I am of the belief that dogs can teach children how to think of others. In this episode I also talk about the shame I have been feeling as I watch my child live his amazing life.

I’ve not made a podcast lately because... I’m sad.

My social anxiety

I am 39 years old, and I’m just now realizing I’m hurt.

Story time

This phone call with my friends is about 100 things apparently. I talk about my weight loss, being afraid of dying (even as a believer in Jesus), and my fascination with children being raised by animals. And apparently I said “my father’s grandmother” I meant my husband’s grandmother 🤦‍♀️.
