A beautiful reminder for parents that the goal isn't to raise successful children but children who know who they are, whose they are, love people well, serve others & follow Jesus.. Enjoy friends.

If you want confident kids, it starts with you.. How do you handle stress?? How do you talk to yourself & others? Do you have this desire to grow spiritually & emotionally? It really does start with us as parents. We have the beautiful blessing of setting that example.. A few things to reflect on during this episode.

Do you struggle with pride or arrogance?? Maybe you haven't asked yourself "what is this teaching me?" or even "Why do I desire approval?".. Dealing with that first, leaving it at Jesus's feet & understanding humility is life changing. The book I share in this podcast is called Humility by Andrew Murray. Love y'all

I wanted to encourage you mamas out there to raise your babies w/ the help of God guiding you. These are some things personally I do.. & I don't always get it right but man is it a breath of fresh air when I surrender my kids over to the Lord and am intentional about my walk with him! It rubs off on my kids & they what I do more than what I say.

Come along with us on a discussion for a brand new year & this mindset of growing spirutally, emotionally & treating our bodies like a temple. What a blessing Lakan McAdams has been to be & so many.. Her growth is inspiring & I hope all of our listeners are encouraged.

We are all in this parenting thing together figuring out how to raise our kids & I have a few tips on what I have discovered through motherhood. God gave us the gift of parenting to "guide" our kids.. Not to control them.. It's important that we are inviting God into our daily parenting. The more you grow spiritually and mature emotionally, the healthier you can be as a parent. 

Dopamine plays a role as a "reward center" in your brain & can affect your mood, motivation, attention & more.. It's known as the feel good hormone. It gives you a sense of pleasure.. But so many people have unhealthy dopamine highs that are leaving them feeling empty. Trust me.... I discovered it myself. Enjoy this episode!

Come dive into this topic with me around healthy conversation & what that looks like.. the Bible says to LOVE ONE ANOTHER & the enemy wants to control our minds & relationships so that he isolates us.. Do not give the enemy a seat at your table!! Take a listen.. Love you guys!

God is working in the waiting.. He is preparing us for tables that we haven't sat at yet.. Growth happens in the valleys and struggles.. Stay faithful. Surrender daily & remember that you are being prepared & conditioned.

We have to let go of what we cannot control.. To heal.. To grow.. We cannot walk around always offended or offending others. This podcast is an encouragement to stop, breath, heal, reflect & focus on a healthier more positive version of yourself.
