How it Felt to Watch My Wife Give Birth

Taken from Episode 416 of Something For Everybody 

Pastor Mike & Dr Jeffrey join Something For Everybody this week. Dr. Mike Hayes and Dr. Jeffrey Garner guide individuals toward rediscovering joy and spiritual clarity. With a mission to help people take control of their lives, they emphasize the importance of redirecting one’s “happiness radar” inward. Make Room is their transformative process, which involves reconnecting with core values and building authentic connections with God, oneself, and the world.

In this conversation we explore the nature of happiness, its misconceptions, and the role of gratitude and spirituality in achieving it. We share personal stories of hardship and resilience, emphasizing the importance of community, mentorship, and the internal journey towards happiness. The discussion also touches on the impact of societal pressures and the need for genuine connections in a technology-driven world.
