Joy City

In this episode, Coach Ryan and I discuss the benefits of youth sports in the lives of youth & adults. 

In this follow up episode, I discuss my interview with SS Coulter with Coach Ryan to get the parental perspective of a husband with (2) kids. Take a listen. 

Welcome to Joy City and welcome my guest S.S. (Shannon) Coulter. Shannon is the creator of The Fassa Tails and author of God's Dad Jokes and she joins Joy City to discuss the vision and mission for The Fassa Tails.

Digital distraction is a huge challenge in our society today. We are thankful and grateful for technology, but we use it to what extent? And to what possible harm to our children? It is estimated that we touch our screens 300 times a day, or every 15 minutes. That is considered an addiction. Many people use screens as a comfort, a digital pacifier to calm, soothe or pacify a disgruntled toddler. Today, I discuss those issues and more with Shannon as well as the "WHY" behind her creation of the Fassa Tails.

You can find out more about Shannon at her website, sscoulter.com as well as order the Fassa Tails and God's Dad Jokes. Shannon's desire to help parents inspire kids to "play again" like generations past, because it is a big key to joy and peace. You can also follow Shannon on social media:

This is part 1 of our discussion regarding digital distractions. 

In this episode we explore the Zero-Based Thinking strategy that can change your life. 

We continue our discussion on activation energy. 

Welcome to Joy City - Mindset Matters! This episode Ryan and I discuss, activation energy and what it takes to launch your dream, vision or achieve your goals. 

Part 2.

What's standing in your way? To move from theory to practice to mastery, the shift of our mindset can be subtle to substantial. 

Closing the gap between who we are capable of being and who we are actually being - not someday, but today! 

Life can be hard at times, we have to zoom out, gain perspective and know that with time, support and coaching, things become easier. When things get hard, reflect on how far you have come and what you have done. Go from, "I can't do this, to I am doing this." 

Be encouraged - you really can do this. 

Many wonder, how do you change? In this episode, I talk about what Abraham Maslow titled, "self-actualization." The importance of actualizing our potential. So we all have choices, to step forward into our growth and discomfort or backwards into comfort and safety. I also share Bruce Wilkinson's book, "The Dream Giver." In it, we meet a character called, "Ordinary." Wilkinson shares that he believes we are all born with a "Big Dream" on the inside of us. How to rise above the ordinary, conquer our fears and overcome to obstacles that can keep us from achieving our big dreams.

Thank you for listening and I encourage you to share with others so we can reach, impact and even inspire as many people as we can by coming alongside to coach them up to take that forward step into their own greatness. No matter how young, no matter how old - we are all born with greatness inside of us.

In this episode, military veteran Ryan Bates and I discuss the topic of "mindset" and what a mindset shift can do to help you in your life to obtain the God given vision for your life. In Joy City, we believe that the plans, desires, goals and dreams that God has for your life, can be fulfilled. What does it take? How do I do this? Can I really achieve these? YES you can. With God's help and by His grand design and with others alongside to lend support and encouragement. It is all possible. Come on in, join us in Joy City and let's ACTIVATE together.
