Susan Obi
Big Picture Podcast
It's easy to get fixated on all the difficulties, details and disappointments in life, but how many times do we stop and ask ourselves what the big picture is? Empowerment is found in knowing that each path we venture through on this journey called life serves a purpose. The goal of this podcast is to inspire listeners to consider the big picture in each season of life. I will be discussing various relevant topics dealing with faith, making decisions, dating, religion, culture and so much more. I will also have guests join in on the conversations with me. I hope you enjoy the journey!
