When all you see is how your needs aren't being met, you're not being seen, heard, understood, or treated with love and kindness, you might start to wonder if you're even wanted. This feeling of unwanted can leave you stuck in feelings of isolation, shame, and even despair. Causing you to question other's motives, build up walls of defense, and keep to yourself, creating more reasons to believe you are unwanted.

In this week's podcast episode, I'll share with you my personal journey and struggle of feeling unwanted and the tools I'm using to help me change this perspective. Creating a new way of seeing myself and my situations, so I can create the experience I want to have that leaves me always feeling loved and wanted.

When it comes to the difficult people in your life, it may seem beneficial to blame them for how difficult your life is, but have you noticed how you're the one who's left stuck in misery and chaos, constantly thinking about what they did or said? What if there's another option available for you to walk away feeling confident and peace of mind?

In this episode I'll teach you how you can improve your experience no matter how the difficult people in your life choose to behave.

When you're feeling triggered by something, your natural response will be to avoid it, become reactive, or completely shut down. But all of these options only keep you stuck in the cycle of feeling triggered, feeling powerless to it. But there's another approach that will not only heal the source of your trigger but will also help you show up feeling calm and confident.

When negative emotions surface, the natural response will be to change something in order to feel better. Leading you to find fault and blame with the circumstances or people around you and pointing out all the things that should change so you can feel better. This can sound like, "if they didn't do or say this then I wouldn't be feeling this way." or "if this didn't happen then I wouldn't feel this way."

In this week's episode I'll show you how blaming the things outside of you are causing you to feel worse and what you can do instead.

When you're willing to wait for cookies to bake before enjoying, clothes to wash before wearing, and a shower to heat up before washing, why does waiting for an answered prayer, promised blessing, or result from a test seem so wearing?

In this week's episode, I share with you a new perspective about waiting and how it can not only increase your faith in Christ, but you will also experience greater joy through the waiting process.

With an endless "to-do" list of all the things you need to do and only seeing what you're not doing, it's easy to fall into believing you're doing it all wrong or there's something wrong with you.

So many equate the ability of what you do and accomplish to your worth and value, making it easy to beat up on yourself when we aren't completing everything on your list. Believing you're falling short, not doing enough, and therefore you're not enough.

In today's episode, I'll help you learn how to separate your worth and value from your "to-do" list and learn the practice of redirecting your focus to what matters most.

Anyone who experiences any form of abuse can easily get caught up in the idea that they are a powerless to another's behaviors. Thinking it's somehow your fault, believing you are broken or worthless.

In this episode I will share with you why you might blame yourself, how you might be continuing the harmful behavior towards yourself, and how you can end those harmful habits that prevent you from healing and living your life to its fullest.
