Sometimes I just want to throw clothes in a suitcase and forget about everything. Time with true friends is precious. Listen in to hear about my recent trip on the Margaritaville at Sea Cruise with my college friends. In this episode, we will examine how friendships can be our best medicine at times. At this point in my life, I only invite friends into my life that allow me to be myself...my true self. I hope this episode will inspire you to call your friends and book a trip!

We are all going through so much and waiting can be so difficult. While we wait, it can feel messy and lonely. Consider what God might be teaching you in your season of waiting. Listen in to examine ways to manage the struggles associated with waiting. 

In this episode, we will explore what's next. Consider these questions:

What will it take from you (and others) to make what's next possible?
What are you willing to sacrifice?
What do you think God is teaching you in your season of waiting?

As you explore, sit with God instead of being pulled by society. 

Are you asking, "What's next?" We will spend the next three episodes exploring what's next for you. In this episode, we get started by asking important questions about your dreams, what limits you, and how to begin the process of moving forward. The questions mentioned in this episode are:

1. What do I love to do?
2. What am I naturally good at?
3. When I picture my future what does it look like?
4. What type of lifestyle would I like to have?

Use these questions and this episode as a guide to start the process of asking yourself, "What's next?" Next week we will begin to explore what's next using a few more pointed questions and reflections.

Messages we hear in childhood often stay with us. These messages can sometimes lead to criticism and lower self-esteem. Often we compare ourselves or expect ourselves to be perfect. In this episode, we will discuss what self-love is and how to embrace more of it. We will explore a few cognitive behavior therapy tools that can be applied in order to examine the roots of self-love and how to overcome self-criticism.

Choosing the bright side can be hard. Is it even possible to ALWAYS choose the bright side? While there are health benefits to seeing the sunny side of things, it may take some work. In this episode we will talk about how to deal with annoyances and strategies for brightening up our lives!

The gut is often underrated. However, happiness and gut health are completely connected. In fact, your gut is your “second brain." Your gut health impacts production of serotonin which impacts mood and sleep. In this episode we will explore the science behind our gut health and ways to restore it through changes in diet, exercise and prayer. The ultimate goal is to restore our gut health in order to improve our mood, metabolism, and mindset.
