We talk about forgiveness.

T.D. Jakes “I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator.  Forgiveness liberates the victim.  It’s a gift you give yourself” 

Unknown “To forgive is not to excuse what the other person did.  It’s to prevent their behavior from destroying your heart.”  

Martin Luther King Jr. “We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love.”  

Alexander Pope English poet “To err is human, to forgive is divine.”

"There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love." Bryant H. McGill

"If we really want to love, we must learn how to forgive." Mother Teresa

"Never forget that to forgive yourself is to release trapped energy that could be doing good work in the world." - D. Patrick Miller

"Forgiving isn't something you do for someone else. It's something you do for yourself. It's saying 'You're not important enough to have a stranglehold on me.' It's saying, 'You don't get to trap me in the past. I am worthy of a future'." Jodi Picoult

“Forgive anyone who has caused you pain or harm. Keep in mind that forgiving is not for others. It is for you. Forgiving is not forgetting. It is remembering without anger. It frees up your power, heals your body, mind and spirit. Forgiveness opens up a pathway to a new place of peace where you can persist despite what has happened to you.” Les Brown

Dr. Seuss “Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes memory.”

Candace Cameron Bure “The memories we make with our family is everything.”

Cathy Allen “Life brings simple pleasures to us every day. It is up to us to make them wonderful memories.”

"It takes one thought, one second, one moment or positive memory to act as a catalyst for the light to gradually seep in again." Fearne Cotton

‘Happy memories form the cornerstone of our identity, and can help with combating depression and loneliness. They influence our happiness in the current moment, as well as providing a framework for our hopes and dreams about the future.’ Meik Wiking

This is a personal story of Jason and his battle with drug and alcohol abuse at a young age.  He overcame a difficult time in his life with the help of his spouse, who at the time was his fiancé.  Also, with the help of family was able to get passed this very dark time his life.  If you have family or friends who are struggling a few things to remember is send them love.  You can love from a distance or set up a boundary if you are not comfortable being around that lifestyle.  Ultimately they need your love.  

It is possible to overcome hard things, you just have to make up your mind and do it.  Take action to move forward and don't allow others to bring you down.

We talk about going through tough times and becoming a better version of ourselves. We want to open up to our listeners and hope you connect more with us as we share things we have gone through.

"We are all so desperate to be understood, we forget to be understanding." Beau Taplin

Hank Smith "One of the secrets of a happier life. If you disagree with someone, you don’t have to tell them."

“Be the one who has an understanding and a forgiving heart, one who looks for the best in people. Leave people better than you found them.” Marvin J. Ashton

Nicholas Cage an American Actor “Understanding is deeper than knowledge.  There are many people who know you, but very few who understand you.”

Anonymous “Those who judge never understand, and those who understand never judge.”

“For over 10 years I’ve held a loving space for people’s transformation – helping women (and some men!) to connect to Divine love and guidance, and dive deep into their hearts so that they can heal, gain clarity and experience greater peace, self-acceptance and freedom in their lives.

My own journey began with an unexpected, traumatic — and miraculous — arrival. My twin sister and I were born 11 weeks prematurely weighing a tiny 2lbs each and doctors told my parents they’d do all they could to save us.

We spent the first 3 months of our lives in hospital gaining strength and all seemed well, until my parents noticed at 18 months old that I was not attempting to walk or even crawl. Doctors called me a ‘lazy’ baby but it was not long before I was diagnosed with cerebral palsy affecting both my legs.

Walking was a challenge – I took my first independent steps at 6 years old, and as a teenager I was told that without major surgery I would be confined to a wheelchair by the time I was 30.

On April 3, 2001, Chad was involved in a serious accident, leaving him a quadriplegic. But Chad’s dreams were not paralyzed that day; as you can see below, he’s kept himself busy:

He started Chad Hymas Communications, Inc., a professional speaking company designed to motivate businesses and corporations to “use their wings and reach seemingly impossible heights.”

• The Wall Street Journal calls Chad Hymas one of the 10 most inspirational people in the world! 

• At 37 years of age, Chad is the youngest person ever to receive the CPAE award and be inducted into the National Speaker Hall of Fame.

• Last year, Chad spoke at 220 different events, traveling just over 300,000 miles and speaking on five continents and in four countries.

• Chad has shared his personal message and entertained many audiences from organizations such as Wells Fargo, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Ford, IHC, Coca-Cola, and the Utah Jazz.

• He is a member of the National Speakers Association and is a CSP (certified speaking professional), a designation achieved by fewer than 8% in the speaking industry.

• He served as president of the National Speakers Association Utah chapter.

• Chad maintains his hobby and dream of managing a5100-acree elk preserve with his father, Kelly.

• He has raced in marathons and, in the summer of 2003, set a world record by wheeling his chair from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas (513 miles). 

• Chad participates in other wheelchair athletic competitions, including basketball, rugby, and officiating basketball (a dream come true).

• He spends many hours with other injured individuals in therapy, encouraging them to overcome their challenges, focus on dreams and make them a reality, and love life for all that it has to offer. To achieve the unachievable and to reach for the unreachable.

• Chad’s greatest accomplishment is that he remains a devoted husband to his loving wife, Shondell, and a proud father to their three children, Christian, Kyler, and Gracee!
