May is Mental Health Awareness Month and I will take this month to highlight some things pertaining to mental health that I believe we all need to address. 

Where do the feelings/thoughts of feeling unloved, unwanted, abandoned and forgotten come from? When did it start? How do you fight them? Can you overcome? Let's discuss. 

Grief can hit even the most stable of people and sometimes we don't quite know how to deal with it. But since we all do deal with it, we might as well talk about some ways that may make it easier. Let's discuss.

We're all here to be a blessing to others -- to serve. But we give so freely and so often to the point where we leave nothing for ourselves when we need it. Let's talk about it.

Do you live with the belief that you don't really have what it takes? Do you think that the talents, gifts, and achievements you've gained are due to dumb luck rather than earned? Are you afraid that people are going to think you're a fraud if you fail? Come join me as I do my best to talk about imposter syndrome.

We mean well when we ask those around us who seem overwhelmed and stressed how we can help them. And even though that question is well-meaning, there is a different way to ask that is more intentional and thoughtful. Listen in to learn more!

So many people walk around in unforgiveness because they have the wrong perception of what it is. We talked about what it is in the first season, and we may have even touched on what it's not. But I wanted to touch on it again today because someone out there needs to hear it.

We all have something about us that makes us uniquely us. Whatever that thing is for you, hang on to it. Hold it tight and never let it go. Let's discuss.

This pandemic hasn't been easy. And a lot of people have made serious moves and accomplished big things. But if all you've done is survive, you've done enough. Let's talk about it.
