After a major medical trauma at the birth of her second child, Brooke was experiencing a moment of physical crisis. Her lungs could not oxygenate, and she was on a helicopter being flown to a more equipped hospital. With no previous experience in meditation, she instinctively turned to Christ as a way to stabilize her mind and body and gain control during an out of control situation.
"Christ is the breath of life." In.
"Christ is the breath of life." Out.
"Christ is the breath of life." In.
"Christ is the breath of life." Out.
Years later, when she began practicing meditation and mantra recitation regularly, she understood that it had literally saved her life. The power that our minds have over our physical state is astonishing, and not very widely understood. In this episode, Brooke shares her story and how meditation became a tool she used in her recovery from PTSD after her near-death experience.
Now, Brooke lives and breathes meditation and identity work. Whether you've had a major trauma and are battling PTSD, struggle with addiction or low self-worth, or even just struggle to maintain a healthy and positive attitude on a daily basis, Brooke has something to offer.
Listen to the full episode to hear how meditation can literally rewire your brain and change your life for the better.

A few weeks ago, Megan Hillyer from the Modern Genealogy Podcast interviewed me about a genealogy project that's dear to my heart! I wanted to share the experience with my own listeners, and she graciously agreed to repost the episode here, to The Certain Woman Podcast.
I've been helping my grandfather transcribe and edit a book containing the romantic letters between his mother and father during the Great Depression. As I transcribed the letters, these two people, who I previously had very little actual connection to, became real to me, as if I had known them. It's been a beautiful experience of getting to know and love my ancestors, and perform this act of preservation for them and my grandfather.
I'm excited to share this bonus episode with you! If you're interested in more family history stories, how-to's, and guidance, check out the Modern Genealogy Podcast.

This episode is for everyone, parents or not, raising boys, girls, or a combination of both!

Compassion, responsibility, and rest. Are these words that come to mind when you think of prison? For ex-convict Portia Louder, a life-shattering prison sentence for real estate fraud felt like the end of the world. As an LDS woman, a wife, and mother of young children, being separated from her family was unimaginable. But her time in prison ended up being a practice in love, forgiveness, and accountability.
In this episode, Portia shares some of the beautiful experiences she shared in prison, and how she came to take responsibility for her actions, rather than pass the buck or play the victim of a corrupt industry. It turns out, prison isn't just what TV paints it to be. Bonding with and supporting other women in prison gave her a perspective on how God loves all of his children, and how everyone deserves ministry, kindness, and love.
Portia now advocates for and serves others impacted by the prison system.

Morgan Norman joins me to discuss how she overcame a long-term stomach illness and subsequent eating disorder. Her mission was disrupted by unexpected health problems which caused rapid weight loss. While her body was shutting down, strangers, friends, and even medical professionals complimented her on how she looked. She became obsessed with those compliments and this new body image, even at the expense of her health. The more "perfect" her body became, the more broken her spirit became.
Listen to the full episode to hear why she thinks having imperfect bodies is an essential part of God's Plan for us on Earth, and why our spirits are bigger than our bodies could ever properly represent.

Today I'm interviewing Jolene Winn, life coach and mentor to women with spouses addicted to pornography. After she discovered her own husband had a secret porn addiction, she struggled with feelings of inadequacy and betrayal, and learned to separate her own progress and personal value from her husband's issues. Through their recovery process, she learned how to find forgiveness to her marriage, and how that same forgiveness also applied to her.
In this episode, we talk about the nature of addiction and how it can alter your perceptions of yourself and your eternal worth, and discuss some of the tools we've developed through our own separate recoveries as we've sought healing.
