  • I Think We Should Talk... About Change

    "Ch-ch-ch-changes..." In this episode of the podcast we talk about change and trying to figure out how to deal with the crazy transitions happening to us on a daily basis. We discuss the fact that I don't deal with change well, the fact that I'm a slight control freak and how I'm dealing with that. If you're anything like me, come along for this wild journey as we find ways to process all of our emotions!

    Bible Verse Referenced:
    Philippians 4:13
    "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
