Real love begins inside our own hearts. As we care for our own emotional health, releasing negative emotions and belief systems, we make room for God to move in our lives. Our capacity to love everyone in our spheres of influence increases and expands, leading us to experience meaningful and healthy relationships.

Sometimes it is really hard, even impossible, to be kind to someone, yet, we can grow and practice kindness. By learning to move through life from a place of rest, not rushing here and there and everywhere, we have more patience and ultimately more kindness.

There is a world of difference between "anger" and "unbridled" or "uncontrollable" anger. Lean in and take a few moments to see if you know the difference. Janell shares how her "unbridled" anger got her into a whole lot of trouble and self-shaming.

For centuries, great thinkers have spoken of the true self versus the false self. In today's podcast, we dive into the apostle Paul's words on this subject. What is the difference between these two "selves?" Is this a "woo-woo" way of thinking or the truth of Paul's teachings in the New Testament?

In our Christmas edition of the podcast, we talk about "A Woman's Greatest Gift," being her emotional health. When a woman possesses and practices the three fold cord of emotional health and spiritual authenticity: a healthy sense of self, healthy behavior patterns and healthy communication skills, she moves through her life from a deep state of inner contentment, which ultimately leads to personal freedom.
