May 16, 2024 Dee Thompson: Steadfast in the Storm
The metaphor of storms, as described in the account of Jesus calming the storm on the Sea of Galilee, is a powerful illustration for the trials and tribulations faced in life. It emphasizes the temporary nature of difficulties and the importance of faith in Christ. When we put our trust in Jesus, we are not only able to weather any storm, but we can emerge stronger on the “other side:
TAKEAWAYS
Storms don’t come to last, they are temporary
Trust what God said to you before the storm!
We are stronger than the storm!
Call out to Jesus in your distress, He is near, He hears, and He will respond
Storms can cause you to question if Jesus cares for you but remember that He never changes.

May 01, 2024 Jackie Pitt: Healing Mother-Daughter Relationships
The dynamics of mother-daughter relationships are indeed a tapestry of emotions and experiences. And my guest today, Jacqueline “Jackie” Pitt, the author of “Mothers and Daughters: Their Story, Their Way, Only They Can Tell” knows firsthand what it is like to navigate the complicated, beautiful, and challenging relationship that sometimes exists between mothers and their daughters.
Her story highlights the significance of acceptance in the face of adversity—recognizing the limitations of her mother's presence, the strength required to release the weight of undue responsibilities and the liberating power of forgiveness. Her story is one that many women can relate to but also one that can inspire hope and healing in others facing similar situations.
I invite you and your girlfriends to listen to this episode about one of the most important relationships that you will ever have!
GUEST TAKEAWAYS
Trauma can leave an imprint on your life.
A person can’t give you what they don’t have.
The journey with her daughters has been a beautiful because it has allowed her to see herself and opened her eyes to what her mom experienced and want to apologize to her mother.
Don’t waste today on what happened yesterday.
Healing a mother-daughter relationship is not one size fits all.

Tony Jones is passionate about ending violence against women. In commemoration of Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM). On today’s episode, I am revisiting an episode where he and I discussed how and why he has spent over two decades advocating for women and the need for others to become involved.
I hope our conversation will inspire you to go from awareness to action because our collective voices and actions can make a difference in ending gender-based violence.

April 02, 2024Jessica Tee: When God Makes a Course Correction
The journey of Jessica Tee is a testament to the transformative power of passion and purpose. Initially on a path to medicine, her volunteer work inspired a pivot to education, leading to the creation of what is now known as The Pretty Powerful Foundation. This organization is dedicated to empowering young women, helping them recognize their value, and providing a nurturing environment where they can flourish. It's a reminder that sometimes, the most impactful life changes come from unexpected experiences and a willingness to follow one's heart.
Jessica’s vision for the future is that she will leave a legacy of pretty powerful leaders who know how to embrace their spirituality, femininity, and how to navigate life.
CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS:
High school for her and her friends was wonderful but could have been so much better with mentorship.

It’s hard for children to learn when they are dealing with inner turmoil.

Providing tools to regulate the emotions of children helps.

Representation Matters!

The young women have taught her how to be MORE empathetic.

March 16, 2024Nancy Johnson: After the Last Goodbye
Nancy Johnson, a true trailblazer, and influential figure in real estate, has been rightfully celebrated with numerous accolades. Her induction into ERA Wilder Realty's 2024 "Hall of Fame" speaks volumes of her impact in the industry. The Mayor of Columbia's declaration of "Nancy Johnson Day" on June 16, 2023, and the prestigious "Key to the City" award she received in June 2022, are testaments to her remarkable contributions. Recognized as WLTX Television's "Hometown Hero" in 2021, Nancy continues to empower others through her Facebook live sessions on "Nancy’s Sunday Best," where she shares invaluable insights on real estate, investing, and building a lasting legacy.
Despite her success as a successful real estate entrepreneur, author, speaker, and coach, she never imagined she'd face widowhood. In today's episode, she opens up about her personal journey and how she's inspiring other widows to share their stories of loss through her upcoming book.
CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS:
Being married to her husband was like living the dream.

Grieving is a process and has its own timeline!

You can only position yourself to live your life without your spouse.

There are days when the waves will overtake you.

February 16, 2024Nicole Spain White: The Heart of a Caregiver
On today’s podcast, I have the extreme pleasure of talking to one of my favorite people, Nicole Spain White. She is a woman who wears many hats: she is a wife, mother, sister, friend, capacity coach, my co-pastor, caregiver, and passionate teacher of Christ's word.
In honor of National Caregiver's Day, which is celebrated on the 3rd Friday in February, Pastor Nicole and I had a candid discussion about the challenges, lessons, mistakes, and joys she has experienced as a caretaker for her now 25-year-old daughter, who she calls her greatest teacher, and both her parents before their deaths. What I learned from our conversation is that caregiving is an act of love and service, caregivers will make mistakes and it is important to ask for help and engage in healthy self-care practices.
If you know someone who is among the 53 million unpaid caregivers in the United States, will you commit to seeking out ways in which you can help those who are selfishly loving others who aren't able to fully care for themselves? Because caregivers need care too!
For state specific caregiver resources, please click on the
following link: https://www.caregiver.org/connecting-caregivers/services-by-state/
So please grab your favorite cup of coffee or tea and join me for this enlightening conversation.
Conversation Highlights
Her family had to trust God every step of the way.

Caregiving involves the emotional, physical, and mental well-being of an individual.

Give yourself and the person you are caring for grace.

Ask for help!

Her greatest joy has been able to serve the ones she loves!

December 15, 2023 Dee Thompson: 2023 Year in Review
It's a Wrap! 2023 has been a year filled of joy and pain. But like so many of you, I have persevered, and I am looking forward to what 2024 has for each of us! As I close out the year, I wanted to take time and look back at the conversations that I had with my incredible guests. I will always be grateful for their willingness to come on the podcast and share their personal faith stories.
If you missed an episode, please take some time over the Holidays to catch up on any of the episodes that you may have missed and don't forget to share!
My sister friend, as you end this year, know that you are loved, valued, appreciated, and enough! Your shame, guilt, disappointments, and failures are not more powerful than the blood of Jesus! God loves you more than you can comprehend.
