All It Takes Is a Goal: The 3-Step Plan to Ditch Regret and Tap Into Your Massive Potential by Jon Acuff

In a season that culturally celebrates joy, festivities, and togetherness, how do we navigate the pressures when we experience hardship? Do we put too much pressure on happiness and one fixed emotion?

In this episode, the multi-gen duo opens up about grief, loss, sickness, and finding consolation for melancholy and grief - even welcoming it - when the Holiday warm fuzzies are not there.

THAT'S A WRAP!

Season 1 of Moral Tea Podcast has come to a close, but we want to give you a deeper look inside our souls before the Season 2 launch - with some very fresh and exciting collaborations, might we add - in October. We can barely believe it's been 4 MONTHS since launching Moral Tea Podcast. Since then, we have attended NRB Convention, held 17 interviews, included but not limited to public figures, CEOs, authors, filmmakers, and humanitarian workers. In April, 2023, two different generations took a chance, setup a mic, and spilled the tea on the same, controversial and risqué topics that brought them together as the multi-gen duo from the start. It's a wild ride, but a good one at that.

We have a VERY exciting announcement soon, so keep your eyes peeled for our second season launch in October!

In this episode, Anna Chernikova shares an inside look at her life in war torn Ukraine. Having fled their home, her family makes a new life in another area of their homeland, where they harness their creativity to help others through their grief and trauma. Amidst the trial and terror, this is one family's story in choosing to be light in the darkness.

The world is shouting at each other, be it in person, on cells or on media. Is it possible to speak with civility anymore? Or is it just another overused term?

The multi-gen duo wrestle with the how-when-what-and why of having conversation during times of relational conflict. The moral to the story is deep talks are worth ‘fighting for’; not tools to be used to fight.

Show Notes:

Highly recommended : Dr Henry Cloud @DrHenryCloud on YouTube, as well as Boundaries by Dr. Henry Cloud & John Townsend.

Moral Tea incorrectly referred to a film. The movie reference mentioned is from A Streetcar Named Desire with Marlon Brando and Vivian Leigh.

Join us every Monday to spill the tea multi-gen style!

They say "Age is but a number," yet the world seems to base each individual's potential and worth off of a mere number. Far too often, the younger generation is classified as ignorant and inexperienced, while the elderly are classified as unusable and dependent. In a culture of generalizations, have we allowed preconceived notions of age to unfairly judge those around us?

Today, we welcome author and editor at End Game Press, Hope Bolinger, to the Moral Tea living room. As a young and equally accomplished woman in her writings, she brings sheer fire with her thoughts on ageism and "age gapping", how it has impacted her career, but how it simultaneously inspired her newest book, "A Country of Their Own". Buckle up!

You can't be everything for everyone...all the time. As technology and access to people and conversations has progressed, so has the pressure to give 100% of ourselves. But what happens when you are booked out, busy, or worse - burned out - yet have multiple interactions demanding your time and attention?

In this episode, the multi-gen duo hangs out with author, speaker, and podcast host, Billie Jauss. Based off her upcoming book, "Baseball Family", she shares her thoughts on navigating the different levels of friendships in our lives, but most importantly, how to love every person right in front of us, no matter what depth and level of friendship.

We all have our ideal version of how life will unfold. But what happens when our dreams are shattered, hopes dissolved, and we're left with the aftermath of reality's slap in the face?

The multi-gen duo opens up about their personal experiences with failure and disappointment - the unsexy realities of life - and how they found peace within it.

Moral Tea sat down with Josh Ramirez of Pray.com, the World's #1 daily prayer app, to discuss how their app helps with prayer and getting through difficult times of loss. This honest interview reveals a deep, personal loss, but the hope that comes from a steadfast God.
