Girl On A Hill

We're continuing our Spring Cleaning of the Heart and Mind series by talking about negativity. Today we're really digging into negativity as we share some common negativity patterns, discuss negativity bias in the brain, and we wrap it up by sharing some practical application for freeing ourselves of the burden of negative words and thoughts. This is a battle we can win ladies. 

In Today's episode we continue our Spring Cleaning of the Heart and Mind series by talking about worry. For most of us, worry isn't just a part of our reality, it's our default setting. And it shouldn't be. We talk about the way worry impacts not only our physical health but our emotional health. We talk about its link to control, faith, and wrap it up by sharing some practical ways we can remove from that center spot of our life. 

In today’s episode, I break down what it means to tackle spring cleaning of the heart and mind. I talk about the damage pretending to be fine when you’re not causes, feeling our feelings vs stuffing them, and how unprocessed pain limits us and prevents us from healing. If we want to rid ourselves of these negative thoughts and behaviors, we have to feel, and we have to heal.

As we continue our spring cleaning of the heart and mind series, we're finally digging into unforgiveness. It's messy and challenging. It feels unfair and too hard. But if we want to heal and move forward in freedom, we have to let go. It's a difficult process, but a choice we need to make if we want to heal our hearts. 

In today’s episode, I’m continuing to sweep out the dark places of our hearts and minds by talking about comparison. Not only does it steal our moments and shatter our security, but it distorts our vision and thinking. When we compare, we see and think about other women incorrectly - and maybe even more importantly, forget who WE are and who we were made to be. It’s time to stop comparing and own who God made us to be ladies.

In today’s episode, we continue our Spring Cleaning of the Heart and Mind series by digging into the topic of gossip. We talk about what it is, why we do it, and how destructive it really is. We wrap it up by talking about how we can make the change and decide to start lifting others up.

In today's episode, Sydney and I kick off our Spring Cleaning of the Heart and mind series by talking about insecurity. We talk about what it is, how it starts, what makes us feel insecure, and how insecurity can manifest. We wrap it up by talking about insecurity hurts us by causing us to miss out on things, and finally, how we can fix it. It's a hard one, it's a deep one, but we need it. 

In today’s podcast, we wrap up our fresh start series by talking about habits. We dig into habit loops, routines and rewards, and how to over-ride our mental ruts. We wrap it up by discussing how to go about replacing our bad habits. We’re sharing strategies, stories, truth, and a big dose of encouragement today. We’re developing our grit, changing our mental soundtrack, and starting to believe in our own possibility.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by my husband David as we break down 5 habits of healthy relationships - habits designed to not only help your relationship last - but thrive. We break down the importance of shared interests and respecting who our partner is, discuss how we must refuse to speak negatively about our spouse in public, and share how we sometimes burden our spouse by expecting them to meet our every need. We also talk about where our kids fit in. We’re sharing our insights, struggles, and how we’ve grown over the last 20 years together.
