  • S2 Episode 6: Divine Purpose
    In this life, sometimes questions seem to outweigh the answers and everything gets a little too cloudy to clearly be deciphered. If you’re familiar with the Bible and its teachings, you know what God says about you and all of his creation, but sometimes our personal feelings and worldly views don’t always align. Listen as I vent about just some of the things that life has revealed to me, as well as what God has assured me of.

  • S2 Episode 4: Barriers and Boundaries of the Physical and Mental
    Throughout history, the discovery of land has brought about many things—with geographic location, area constraints, wealth, and sustenance being some—and with these discoveries there have always been certain barriers or natural forces that come into play. These barriers and forces can begin to drastically change the culture of a species and heavily dictate what can happen in those areas . Similar to everyday life, many things can act as physical and mental barriers to and for our individual success, how we interact with others, and what we have access to. This theory personified even breaks down into literal changes of DNA. Sounds crazy right? Let me explain it to you.

  • S2 Episode 3: The Highs and Lows of the Love Woes
    Love has many meanings for me, all stemming from feeling a great responsibility to provide for, protect, and accommodate someone else. This sense of selflessness is something I associate with God and how He loves us and wants us to interact with one another. Unfortunately, this is rarely a reality and many issues arise from it. Another day, another life lesson. Listen as I talk about my journey to finding true love in all areas of my life, with my own self-love relationship taking precedence.

  • S2 Episode 1: The Tragedy of the Commons
    Welcome back listeners! To kick off Season Two of ‘Honestly, I’m irritated.’, we are going to look at a common phrase that’s meant to describe the depletion of unregulated natural resources, and from there reach out into our daily lives beginning to realize how sabotaging focusing only on one’s self-interests can be for society and the world around us. Is the “I have to do what’s best for me” mentality causing more harm than good? Are we obligated to consider other people and our environment in our decisions? Let’s talk about it! ✨
