https://view.flodesk.com/pages/60f06c55d2b5fd459146b57d 

So I didn't know optimizing your hormones was a thing but now that I do I am intrigued!  This week and next we are looking (in awe) at the female body and how it is working for us!  She's doing good work!  

This week our guest is BriAnne Bell, nurse and podcast host, of The Passive Income Nurse.  She geeks out when it comes to talking about our monthly schedule. She is teaching us that there is more to it than that one dreaded week a month! All month long our body is in a process and with more understanding we can let it work for us and not against us. This info starts at about the 30 min mark.   

Bri also bravely shares about her journey toward knowing God personally.  She is full of courage and ambition. She loves her family first and has learned to let God be the foundation of her business and her life.  You're gonna love the first 30 minutes of this episode where she shares her story.

Episode 22: What we were NOT taught in Nursing School (5 Books + 5 Documentaries) 

I am sharing my healing journey and the way I traveled back in time to revisit my story.  What I didn't expect was how God completely rewrote my story one stop at a time....and one time he intervened right in the middle of I-26. He took care of the fear and lies himself and set me on a straight path.  Rewriting my story changed my identity and the course of my life. God makes all things new.  

That's ok....I do too!  LOL  

But maybe it would be a good time to check in and make sure it isn't shame-face, like is mentioned in Psalm 34.  Are we able to say look what God has done in my life and speak from a place of thanksgiving and joy or are we walking hidden and small?  

I know you want a life that brings light to the world!  Let's uncover every lie stealing us from a joy filled life. 

God shows up individually for each one of us by covering us and pursuing us.  What if we could know we are chosen and know we are not alone because we find Him...not in a mysterious place that is out of reach but right in our own lives?  We are not too far gone or out of reach..God is already there working and loving. I believe when we seek to find, we will find he has been really close all along.

Season 2 is all about showing up as the brave warrior you are!  It is time to dig deep into knowing ourselves and knowing God so that we get the most out of this life and give the most away!
