We discuss the many ways our pride can keep us from truly enjoying the amazing things that are waiting for us, and how simply getting out of our own way can open our lives up to an abundance of happiness, fulfillment, and love!

This week we discuss the benefits of exercise and physical activity in reaching new levels of health, happiness, and clarity that are SURE to help us thrive in each of our relationships with our families, friends, and ourselves!

In Episode 11 we discuss capturing a funny blooper video, nearly dying crossing a muddy bridge, and appearing on XM radio. Most importantly we tell our mommas how much we love and adore them! We had some really good ones! Still do!

Jess got the opportunity to appear on Sharkfarmer Radio, XM 147. {listen here} Something she considered a dream come true quickly became pretty horrifying as nerves set in, and we discuss walking through that fear to get to the truth.

Jay talks about his tough week when one of his children through a curveball and wanted to stay at their mom's this weekend instead of coming to our home. We go over the tools he used to walk through those painful moments with grace in order to keep something minor from becoming something major.

We discuss in this episode how each of us are created with a yearning to help others, and the further away we get from this original plan the more anxious and depressed we can come. Thinking of other people before ourselves, and doing things for others in service can be therapeutic and needs to be sought out when dealing with hard times/seasons. The quickest way to stop the negative thought loops is the redirect the attention from our own lives and replace is with concern/though for other people. Serving others can be medicinal for our own depression and anxiety!

In episode 9 we discuss how each of us deals with anxiety and the affects it can have on us physically, mentally, and emotionally. We discuss different tricks and tactics that we use in defense to anxiety, and also the very physical ways anxiety can manifest physically in the form of anxiety attacks and panic attacks. Jessie describes what she experiences physically when having her anxiety attacks, and encourages others to do the same so that we can take the stigma away. Anxiety can cause us to feel broken, isolated, lonely, and alienated and we want to open up the lines of communication so that we may be about to move forward in healing and health.

We discuss two different powerful quotes in this episode, and what they mean to us in our lives.

"Go and love someone exactly as they are. And then watch how quickly they transform into the greatest, truest version of themselves. When one feels seen and appreciated in their own essence, one is instantly empowered." -Wes Angelozzi

"Trauma is perhaps the most avoided, ignored, belittled, denied, misunderstood, and untreated cause of human suffering." -Peter Levine

In this episode we take a journey back, for a bit, to discuss our experiences in the darkest times of our lives. It was difficult to imagine a bright future from the bottom of a "pit", but we want to be a voice of hope for those that are struggling and stuck. We discovered that we had to shut our mouths, put our heads down in determination, and move forward at all costs to climb out of the 'mud" and step into our best lives!

A few quotes that we discuss:

"Heal yourself and you heal your children's children" -unknown

"When you value your opinions more than you value others you lose influence" -John Mckinzie

"You cannot fight someone to seeing things your way" -John Mckinzie

Listen in as we discuss how fear has blocked ambitions, pushed back timelines, shelved dreams, and crippled passions in our own lives. We all know that the mind is programmed to protect us from uncertainty, but we also know that everything we have ever wanted is right on the other side of those scary moments! When it comes to worry and fear, it is common for us to get stuck. Whether your children are starting a new school, or anything new for that matter! Or maybe you are wanting to make a life-change but are terrified what your friends and family will think. Whatever it may be, we want to encourage you to keep moving forward. We want you to press through the sticky spots in life than can cause you to feel stuck, depressed, and full of despair. We know all to well how that feels, from our own experiences. After getting out of our pits we set out to grab more rope and come back for all of you!

We discuss the idea of gratitude, and how practicing it has changed our lives. Gratitude is the quality of being thankful, and the readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness. We feel like keeping gratitude at the forefront of our minds can fight off thoughts of self-loathing and negativity. One of the scariest events in our lives is simultaneously something we are most thankful for, and we describe in detail how it occurred. After walking through those moments we learned how to flip trials on their heads, and look at them from entirely different angles. The Lord told us to count it all joy the trials we experience, and it's not something that we learned to embrace fully until the past few years. We want to encourage a change in attitude to an attitude of gratitude, stealing the negative space for something positive. We believe that doing this can enhance your lives in gigantic ways!
