Do you feel like parts of your life are damaged? Are you looking for hope and redemption? Are you wondering if God can still use you after all you've been through? We all face hard moments, and even though we can feel damaged, we are not destroyed. No one lives this truth out better than Mike Todd, who is joining me in this podcast to talk about:

• Confronting the hard things we've faced in life

• Remembering that God can use the good and the bad

• Being honest with ourselves and others in our healing journey

• Living a life of freedom and transformation

Mike Todd is an author and the pastor of Transformation Church, and he lives a life full of faith. He lives out his calling with confidence and always keeps it real. Mike talks about some of the difficult seasons that he's walked through publicly, and the lessons he's learned during that time. Mike has healed and he's written about it all in his latest book, Damaged But Not Destroyed. Throughout this episode, Mike tells me about his journey of faith, walking in his calling and the power of therapy. This podcast is a reminder that there is power in your story and in your vulnerability.

As you listen, I hope that you remember that God is bigger than any problem you face. Be strong and courageous, for God is with you wherever you go! Be sure to tag us @biancaolthoff and @iammiketodd, we'd love to learn about how this episode spoke to you.

Do you ever question your identity? Are you looking for ways to actively stay connected to God? Is it possible to not be defined by your past? As we grow in our faith, we learn to see ourselves the way God sees us, but it's not always easy. In this podcast, Hosanna Wong joins me to talk about:

Hosanna is a spoken word artist, writer and a close friend of mine! She's spent most of her life fighting for identity inside and outside of the church, and she's got wisdom to share with us. Hosanna speaks about the importance of staying connected and rooted in the word of God. Throughout this episode, Hosanna talks about spiritual disciplines and shares practical ways to incorporate them into our daily lives. We also share our thoughts on taking a Sabbath and how we've embraced regular moments of rest.

As you listen, I hope you're reminded of your God given identity, and remember the importance of spending time with God. Remember you're wonderfully and fearfully made, child of God!

Be sure to tag us @hosanna.wong and @biancaolthoff we'd love to learn about your God given name and identity.

Love you friends,

Do you feel like quitting something? Are you trying to discern if a season is ending? Is there a way to transition out of places well? Sometimes leaving is better than staying, whether it's in a church, job or relationship, but it's not always easy to go. In this podcast, I talk about:

> Knowing when it's time to quit

> The importance of self-awareness

> Discerning your season and life transitions

> Leaving situations and relationships with excellence

Quitting is something no one likes to do, especially when it feels like you may have failed in some way. (I hate quitting, really, I even wrote a book called Grit, Don't Quit!) But sometimes, knowing when to leave something can create space for the new thing that God wants to do in your life. In this episode, I delve into one of the topics in my book and reflect on my own experiences of life transitions. 

As you listen, there may be some tough questions that you have to ask yourself but sometimes you need to take a step of faith and trust God's timing! Remember that while leaving can be hard, there are still new people to meet, new places to explore and new experiences to have. 

The best is yet to come, friend! Don't forget to tag me @biancaolthoff, I'd love to learn more about how this episode spoke to you.

Love you,

B

Kobe’s Quotes

Emotions are like the check engine light of the soul.

We live in the stories we tell ourselves.

You have to care about your mental and emotional health before you are in crisis.

There's a difference between feeling a strong emotion that is uncomfortable and being triggered.

Anger is an emotion that tells us that something sacred has been violated and that something needs to be protected. 

An overlooked means of wounding someone is with words. 

The words that people speak over us create the perception that we have of ourselves, and we live out of that perception.

Difficult short-term choices lead to easy long-term consequences.

Procrastination and indulgence are really nothing more than creditors that charge us interest.

The shortest most guaranteed path to greatness is to do the things you know you should be doing even when you don't feel like doing them.

The amount of our endurance is directly proportionate to the clarity of our vision.

Discipline goes dormant in the absence of a dream.

Success is never owned, it's rented, and the rent is due every day.
