This show is a heavy topic but SO important for anyone who is evaluating their relationship or who wants to avoid unhealthy people.  Those of us who have experienced trauma or abuse are much more likely to become involved with manipulative and abusive people.  Here are 10 warning signs of manipulative people. 

If you are in an abusive relationship and you need help, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-7233.

Thank you to Kristen Kiernan for the creation of this list.

National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline - Dial 988

It's the end of the year as we know it!  Today is the last day of 2022!  What a beautiful opportunity to start fresh in the new year, a clean slate, a blank canvas.  Let's talk about why New Year's Resolutions typically don't last and how we can create goals instead that will push us forward and help us live the life we want.  

Please join in our Facebook group and follow on instagram to join the conversations!  Do you have a story to tell?  Send me a message and let's talk about getting you on the show! 

In this episode we hear the story of a friend who has experienced a lot of trauma in life beginning as a young child.  One thing that really sticks out to me as so important is for us to make sure our children are safe with us and that we don't put them in compromising situations.  If someone tells you about their trauma, they need to hear the words, "I believe you."

Merry Christmas!  I hope you're having a GREAT holiday weekend with family or friends, but most of us know there may be situations that come up that require some help. 

You can't follow a safety plan you didn't write.  A safety plan is how we can think through and plan for potential red flag or yellow flag situations.  If we plan ahead and we know what we will do in case of bad situations or conflict, then we are already half way through it!  It is far better to have a safety plan you didn't need than to need one you don't have.  

Join in our community, don't be shy.  You belong here.  

You can forget a perfect voice today too 'cause I've got a cold.  But you don't need perfection, you just need me to show up.   Let's talk about perfection today and how the pressure to reach perfection can cripple us.  Beyond that, I've got a special message to fellow single moms.  If you know someone who needs to hear this message, please share it with them and when it encourages you, please leave a review! 

I'd like to have a zoom Meet & Greet, if you'd like to join me please check out the information in our Facebook group.  Join in our community, we'd love to have you there.  You can also follow on instagram. 

There are days when it feels like we are constantly failing and our entire world may crumble.  It can be so difficult to trust God in those moments.  This prayer is from my heart on a day where it the overwhelm made trusting God feel impossible.
