June 01, 2021 #49 - Why Change Is Hard
Other people may make change look effortless, but the truth? It's not.

It seems easy because we're just seeing them AFTER their change - not the struggle it took to get there.

Why is change hard? It's part of God's design for our human life.

By understanding this AND understanding how God also gave us everything we need to overcome that, we can learn how to make real change a reality in our lives.

In ANY area of our life - relationships, health, job, money, job.

The other truth about change? God wants us to change.

He tells us that through His word and communicates that to us by the specific desires He puts on our heart.

Are there changes you want to make in your life but you're stuck in the struggle? (I know I've been there oh-so-many times.)

Then join me - not just for this podcast - but also in my 100 Days to Change group (join my private FB group by going to https://www.facebook.com/groups/100daystochange.)

In there, I'm sharing everything I've learned about change - AND all my real-time struggles as I push through 2 new BIG changes I'm making in my life. This week I'm revealing the #1 reason change is hard - and how you can overcome it.

Let’s change together!

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed and progressively changed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2 AMP

May 25, 2021 #48 - The Lie of I'm Not Enough
Do you see this thought in your life?

I'm not...good enough, smart enough, skinny enough, beautiful enough - simply not enough.

Oh man, I know I have more times than I even care to imagine or admit.

Here's God's message for you, for me, for every woman alive on this planet. YOU. ARE. ENOUGH.

Done - there's nothing more that needs to be said, right? I wish!

There is more because of how quickly we forget and twist that message to not apply to us - at least not today, not this week, not in this chapter in our lives.

Before we know that message ends up becoming not in my life period.

Today I'm sharing why we do this, why many times these thoughts don't even seem controllable, and - most importantly - how you can start living out God's truth about this in your life.

Because here's the thing in His abundant life, we are ALWAYS enough!!

For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Romans 10:13

May 18, 2021 #47 - Conquering Anxiety
I wish I could tell you I never struggle with anxiety - but I can't.

In fact it's been a regular, unwanted companion most of my life.

What I've learned the last few years has allowed me to recognize it for what it really is and that was the beginning to my path of overcoming it.

Today I'm sharing with you all the ways I'm learning to conquer my anxiety so you can do the same with yours.

Here are a few important things to know about anxiety.

It always wants us to believe it's very important - it's not.
Our natural response is to try to resist it but that increases its power.
God wants us to give ALL our anxiety to Him so don't hide yours in shame -- invite Him in!

God uses emotions like anxiety as signals in our life so it's important we don't ignore them. It's also important we include Him in our struggles with it.

But excess worry and anxiety is not part of God's long-term plan for our abundant life so let's go conquer it with Him!

As a recovering anxiety card-carrying member, I'd love to hear your experiences and what ways you've discovered works best for you.

Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7

May 11, 2021 #46 - Thriving Relationships
Do your relationships feel stale or distant? Do you feel more like a roommate with your spouse than a wife?

Today we're going to extend the discussion we had about our relationship manuals last week to how we can build thriving relationships with anyone, BUT especially those people in your life you want to experience deep authentic connection with.

God built us to love and to connect deeply with others so if you're not doing this you're missing a fundamental piece of the abundant life He promised us.

Join me as I share 5 steps on how you can start making this a reality in your life and the best news is it’s ALL in your control!

...Love does not demand its own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do it wrong. 1 Corinthians 13:5 TLB

May 04, 2021 #45 - Relationship Manuals
Do you know you have an owner's manual for how other people in your life are supposed to act?

Your significant other, your kids, your friends, your boss - everyone in your life.

This manual comes from your belief systems - formed from all your thoughts and experiences over your lifetime.

These manuals lead to problems in our relationships.

First, your human nature is going to be to to respond negatively when someone doesn't follow the manual you have for them.

Second, this happens frequently because everyone has their own unique belief systems.

Third, when this happens it can lead to you trying to control that person's behavior.

WARNING: Other adults don't like to be controlled and you can't actually control what other adults ultimately do so this will make you feel desperate and helpless.

Join me this week to learn all about our manuals and how we can manage them to improve our relationships.

Love from the center of who you are; don’t fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle. Romans 12:10 MSG

April 27, 2021#44 - Inviting God In
Do you notice you’re really quick to invite God into certain areas of your life but not others?

Here’s what I see in my life. I’m quick to bring Him into the big areas - my salvation, my health, the health and salvation of the ones I love.

But the smaller areas I struggle so much on a day-to-day basis? Not so much. Like negative habits I want to change, my relationships, my money, my thoughts and emotions that knock me off track.

Many times I fail to bring God directly and fully into those - especially the way He wants me to. And He most definitely wants us to!

So join me this week as I share:
3 primary reasons I think holds us back from doing that,

why I’m convinced God wants us to bring EVERYTHING to Him - especially the smaller things holding us back,

and how to start bringing Him and His truths into these areas of your life today.
I know how this can change your life, because it’s had such a dramatic impact on mine!

...Let EVERY detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way... Colossians 3:17 MSG

April 20, 2021 #43 - Self-judging
Stop and think for a moment how often you judge others?

Is it a regular occurrence?

If so, here's something you might not know - you're probably judging yourself even more.

Our external reflects our internal, so the more we're doing something on the outside, the more we're doing it on the inside.

And this is important to realize because the problem with our sneaky inner self-critic is it's normally buried in our subconscious thoughts so we're not aware of the impact it's having.

An impact that usually includes holding us back from the abundant life God wants us to live.

Join me today to learn about God's truths about our self-judgments and how it's possible to build real awareness and understanding of them that will help you move past them.

But if we evaluated and judged ourselves honestly [recognizing our shortcomings and correcting our behavior], we would not be judged. 1 Corinthians 11:31

April 13, 2021 #42 - Fear
Fear is a powerful emotion at work in most of our lives. So here’s an important question - do you know how it’s working in yours?

And do you know God’s truths about fear and what He says about how it should impact your life?

God’s truth is we can overcome all our fears through Him.

God’s truth is also that He designed us in a way that makes fear a very real and natural part of our lives, so we have to rely on Him to help us move through them.

Join me on today’s podcast to learn how fear made me play small for many years, how our brain’s natural design produces fear - and how through God’s gifts we can overcome ALL of them.

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

April 06, 2021 #41 - Creating Space
Quick - what do you say when someone asks you how you are doing?

Let me guess - fine or busy - or probably both. I know that's what I do but I'm trying hard to change that.

Are you mired in busyness?

Do you struggle to find space for what's truly important in your life?

Do you find yourself constantly overwhelmed and exhausted?

Do you feel like there's no way you can take on one more thing in your life?

That's NOT God's plan for your life.

God doesn't want us to live our lives so focused on the unimportant that we struggle to find time for what's truly important.

Like Him, our loved ones, taking care of ourselves so we can truly be there for others, and the desires He specifically places on our heart.

Listen to His truth about this.

Don’t waste your time on useless work, mere busywork. So watch your step. Use your head. Make the most of every chance you get. Don’t live carelessly, unthinkingly. Make sure you understand what the Master wants.

The world's figured out oh-so-many ways for us to get absorbed, distracted, and comfortable with the unimportant.

And I discovered how true this was for me in my journey and how God gives us the ability to change that. Join me to hear more about how to create more space in your life for what's God-pleasing, not world-pleasing.

“Martha, you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” Jesus in Luke 10:41-42

March 30, 2021 #40 - Loving Yourself 2.0
I know what God says about who I am. But I still find myself often lost somewhere between what I know and what I think.

I believe that sums up the struggle most of us have with consistently loving ourselves unconditionally.

So this week I dive into how we can move past that.

How we can live God's truth about who we are on more than just our good days.

Spoiler alert! I think the place for us to start is to focus on God's first greatest commandment.

Doing that will give us more thoughts that lead to feelings of love.

Doing that will create more actions in our life from love.

The way we love God is closely connected to the way we view and love ourselves.

And the way we view and love ourselves is closely connected to the way we view and love others.

I'm working hard on this so join me on this podcast to hear more about how to love yourself like God wants you to.

Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. 1 John 4:8
