Something to Bless

It's one thing to overcome an addiction by committing to your recovery, but an entirely different thing to have emotional sobriety. On today's episode, my husband, Juan, is talking about the importance of addressing both external and internal issues in order to truly enjoy a life of peace, joy, and gratitude. Through honesty, humility, and hard work, he regularly assesses his mental and emotional well-being as part of his recovery program.

If you are on a mission to live a better life by being the best version of you OR you want to know more about what GOD has to say about your life and your purpose, then this is your place. We’re keeping it really real around here about what it takes to live an intentional life full of meaning, purpose, and faith. We’re digging into God’s word so that we can be filled with the TRUTH and PROMISE that he has for each of us. Let’s get into it. 

We hear all about the dangers lurking in this often dark world, but we hope and pray they will never touch our families. Today, I am sharing how my 14 year old niece BARELY made it back home after being hidden from my family for four days. 

While there is still much to learn about how trafficking works, here are a few things I know from our experience: 

* Trafficking is a HUGELY deep and broad network. Many unsuspecting people are often a part of this elaborate underground world- people many of us would never question twice (young girls, "pretty" or overly kind and nurturing women, etc.)

* Grooming often happens in the initial stages to gain trust and build loyalty

* Many of these people use covers for their "work" and often have multiple businesses.

* These people use phones that are more difficult to trace (such as Metro or throwaway phones).

By the grace of God, efforts by others, and a mother's fierce determination to find her daughter, my niece is SAFE. 

Please talk to your children, supervise closely, monitor their phone activity, and always always follow your instincts. Our family thanks each and every person who shared, prayed, and walked with us during this experience. 

Have you ever thought about your vibe? Whether we realize it or not, we all have one. We've all experienced people and places that make us feel a certain way according to their energy. Today on the show, Kelly Cardenas is teaching us what it looks like to have an irresistible vibe by intentionally crafting the core of who we are and who we're designed to be. Taking principles of God's word and applying them to his work culture and personal interactions, Kelly has established himself as a champion of all people through the spirit of kindness, positivity, and a willingness to take risks. You don't want to miss this episode!

Did you know that 95% of people never create or live the life they desire?How could this be?! In this episode, I share the importance of community and achieving more by enlisting and embracing the help of others. If you look at any successful person, you'll realize they didn't get there alone. In more ways than one, we need and depend on others to continue growing, learning, and achieving.

Can you imagine a world where everyone loved each other? Jesus told the disciples that God's most important commands to us all were that we were to love Him and each other. I'm not sure we're responding to the call and I want to change that, one heart at a time. In today's episode, I'm making a case for forming a more loving heart and approach as we encounter the challenges of each day. Tomorrow is not promised and since you never know when you will come face to face with God, why not respond now to the call He's made on your life? Spread the love and share this episode with a friend!

Clutter. Such a pain, am I right? What many people don't realize is that by overfilling our spaces, we are really overwhelming our senses, which leads to stress, anxiety, and frustration. A chaotic space= a chaotic brain. In most cases, the answer is to simply get rid of stuff that is no longer serving us. What if the thing you desire hasn't appeared yet because there's simply no room for it? Join this conversation with Unison Frances, founder of Go Goddess Organizing, who shares thoughtful insights and ideas for getting our spaces organized and decluttered.

If there's anything we can't fully understand about God- it's His undying  love for all His children. Today on the podcast, I'm talking to Karina Salgado, who's sharing her story of heart wrenching loss, pain, and suffering. Thankfully, it doesn't end there. Through the words and love of others, Karina was able to meet God in the midst of her pain and place her broken heart in His loving hands. He's been working in and through her ever since! You do not want to miss out on today's episode!
