Send a text
Whether knocking on your door, riding a bike through your neighborhood, on a theater stage, or these days, on social media, you’ve likely seen some missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with their black nametags. Today we get to talk to a missionary mom and talk about what it’s like to send your kid to serve as a missionary. Check the full show notes for resources on the what, why, and how of missionaries as well as how to support Pebbles of Light. PEBBLE FOR THE WEEK: If you know the mom of a missionary, reach out to her and let her know that you appreciate all that she is doing to allow her child to serve – especially with all that is going on with the pandemic. If you don’t know the mom of a missionary, next time you see some missionaries out on the street or knocking on your door or on your social media feed, think of how their mom and let them know that their mom loves them.

December 15, 2020Ep 9: Of Mind, Heart and Body - Finding Your Personal Strength || Teri Hoeksema
Send a text
Teri Hoeksema is the owner of “Forever Fit” a personal fitness training studio in Idaho. On her website it says, “Beauty is not perfection, skinny isn't necessarily beautiful. What is truly beautiful, is confidence in oneself; and the recognition that we are who we are, for a very important reason.” I love how her take on personal health ties in with divine identity. Be sure to check the full show notes for more information and resources!PEBBLE OF THE WEEK: Think of a healthy habit that you can stack with brushing your teeth. It may be drinking a glass of water so you can up your hydration. It may be doing 10 pushups or crunches or leg raises or a plank. Just something simple that takes less than a minute that you can tack on before or after brushing your teeth.

December 08, 2020Ep 8: How to Focus on the Light During Times of Weariness || Anne Maxson
Send a text
EPISODE GUIDEDoctrine & Covenants 64:33-34 states, “Be not weary in well-doing, for you are laying the foundation of a great work.” But what happens if you are weary? What happens if you are exhausted, burned out, over-stretched, and just need a break? This week, Anne shares some tips about overcoming (and allowing) those feelings of weariness. PEBBLE OF THE WEEK: Choose one of these 3 tools to help with feelings of weariness to try this week.1.Reflect on previous successes and strive to keep moving forward in the little things that help you deal with the big things.2.Take time to “Just Be Held” Take time for stillness. I have some tools for this. A book that I love and recommend is “The Power of Stillness.” I’ll link it in the show notes. Also, there is a BRAND NEW app from the fabulous group at The Small Seed. Search the App Store or Google Play for “Small Seed Still.” If you are unfamiliar with The Small Seed, you should seek them out on social media or on their website thesmallseed.com!3.Seek professional help if you are having a hard time getting out of a tough spot. I’ve seen a therapist a few times in my life and those visits and the help received have been instrumental in keeping me on the right path in life. If seeing someone in person is tricky for one reason or another, reach out to the sponsor of this episode, Betterhelp. You can get 10% off your first month by going to the website betterhelp.com/pebbles. That's b-e-t-t-e-r-h-e-l-p.com / p-e-b-b-l-e-s.Be sure to check the full show notes for additional resources!

December 01, 2020Ep 7: How to Harness Your Tragedies to Empower Others || Myrna Peterson
Send a text
Myrna Peterson is a quadriplegic living in rural Northern Minnesota who is a proactive advocate for differently abled persons. She has done a TEDx Talk, broke a Guinness World Record and is a recipient of the very prestigious Andrus Award for Community Service. She says that she only has one thumb that moved but she has a mouth that doesn’t stop. And she uses her voice to do all the good that she can. PEBBLE OF THE WEEK: Do your best to really see people and understand their story. This can be as simple as looking the store clerk in the eye while (sincerely) telling them thank you and to have a wonderful day. Or it could be taking time to talk to someone while in line at the store or even reaching out on social media to an acquaintance and learning more about their story. Brené Brown has said that “people are hard to hate close up.” Do your best to get know someone and understand their perspective – especially if it is different from yours.
