Religion EN ↓ 245 episodes

Being human means being imperfect. It means making mistakes — but also loving, laughing, learning, growing, changing, and truly living . Being human means you matter . It means you have infinite value.  This podcast is all about embracing the human experience, especially the beauty of imperfection. Our weaknesses give us the chance to grow and turn them into strengths.   Being human is a life full of stories, relationships, faith, and growth. Psychology helps us better understand what it means to be human, and I love sharing insights and lessons I learn along the way. I am a member of the Chur...

135 The Many Holy Reasons 09.09.2024

This episode is a recap of my third week of FSY this summer. Unfortunately, I was very sick this particular week, and that really put a damper on my experience. I’m hoping that miracles still took place and the youth had a good experience! This is random, but if you have not listened to episode 134, “Thank You’s From Heaven: Part Two,” go do that first. This one can wait! Don’t forget to sign up f...

Everything will be okay. Heavenly Father loves you. He is aware of you. He hears your prayers. He will answer your questions. This episode is solely focused on a couple of interactions I had with a young woman while in Rohnert Park, CA. She is absolutely wonderful, and this story is crazy! Take the time to listen and to be reminded of Heavenly Father’s love for us. Don’t forget to sign up for Remi...

133 Just Wait: Part Two (feat. Maddie Topham) 28.08.2024

After listening to this half of the interview, I realized that we did not talk about the phrase “just wait” in part one. It made me laugh to think about the little caption I wrote that was not applicable for that episode. Whoops! In this second half of the interview, we finally talk about the phrase “just wait,” and I feel encouraged to use it for positive things from now on. One important thing w...

132 Just Wait: Part One (feat. Maddie Topham) 26.08.2024

“Just wait” can be used in different contexts. Sometimes people use it in a negative way, saying “oh just wait til …” In this episode, Maddie uses it in a positive light, saying, “just wait … it gets so much better!” Our topic today is marriage, and I interview Maddie on what she and her husband do to have a healthy and happy relationship. Please do not forget that each relationship looks differen...

131 Thank You’s From Heaven: Part One 19.08.2024

130 Faithful Fearless Friends: Part Two (feat. Kristi Rudolph) 14.08.2024

Here is part two of our epic miniseries about friends. This episode has just as much value as the first, and I hope you spend time listening, pondering, and then applying the things that you learn. Our circle of peers has a great influence on us, and it is one of the reasons I find this topic so relevant and applicable to all. So please take care, please find good friends, and PLEASE don’t forget...

129 Faithful Fearless Friends: Part One (feat. Kristi Rudolph) 12.08.2024

I beg you to take the time to listen to this episode. Sister Kristi Rudolph is INCREDIBLE and is so engaging. I loved listening to her teach at FSY, I loved getting to know her better after class, and I loved recording this podcast with her. The name of this episode comes from her class’s title all about friends, and I’m telling you, like seriously and actually, it’s not one to miss. Part two will...

126 Line Upon Line (blog post) 02.08.2024

125 Bottling the Magic: Part Two (feat. Nathan Salway) 29.07.2024

Here is the final part of my little interview with Nathan! I cannot speak highly enough of him, he is everything that is good with the world! I’m so blessed we got to be co-counselors for a week, and I’m so grateful for the friendship we developed. Once again, please forgive me for the poor audio quality. 🙏🏻 We used little lapel mics, and we recorded it outside where there were other people and...

Please forgive me for the poor audio quality. 🙏🏻 I apologize even more for the random people that joined the soundtrack towards the end of the episode. I didn’t realize how loud they were until we were done recording. WHOOPS! To our...

123 I Miss Them Too (blog post) 15.07.2024

In this episode, I read my recent blog post ImperfectlyBroken.com/i-miss-them-too/ It’s been such a tender way to connect to other FSY counselors, and it’s helped me cope with my feelings! I love that Heavenly Father blesses me with experiences that I can consecrate for good and use to invite others to come unto Christ. I hope you take my invitation to spend more time with Heavenly Father and Jesu...

121 FSY Journal #1 30.05.2024

I’ve decided it would be fun to record real and raw (completely unedited) little episodes about my experiences each day. I don’t know how many episodes there will be or for how long I’ll do it, so let me know if you like it! I didn’t even add the intro music or the outro music, though I probably will in the future.

119 The Absolute Threshold 24.04.2024

I care deeply about this concept/topic and have wanted to share it with you for a long time. Finally, I sat down and recorded my thoughts and experiences about it! I hope you can learn more about the absolute threshold and understand why I think it’s so important and applicable! I did something different than I’ve ever done before (and I’ll probably never do it again); it’s down below. I separated...

118 Rob Burdzy Interviews Me! 22.04.2024

Today I’m shaking it up … big time! This episode is a recording from last Friday, the 19th of April. My friend Rob invited me to come on Thunder 91.1 (SUU’s radio station) during his shift so he could interview me about my podcast. I met Rob Burdzy in my Audio Production class this semester. I am a front-row student (as you probably already know haha!) and so is Rob! We became friends and have bon...

Hannah and I talk about our study abroad trip to Europe. Hannah shares her side of things and we share our favorite places and parts of the experience. P.S.

115 An Insider’s Look on Being a Bishop (feat. Scott Roberson) 02.04.2024

For about a month now I have felt prompted to record an episode with Brother Scott Roberson (aka Brother Rob). I reached out to him, and he kindly agreed. Brother Rob talks about the duties of being a bishop, challenges related to this calling and how he overcame them, times when he felt prompted to reach out to someone, what he wanted his legacy to be, stewardship and its role in a ward, how he p...

This was such a fun podcast to record! Thank you Michelle! Thank you so...

113 Strategic Watering 25.03.2024

I LOVE my Experimental Analysis of Behavior class. It is so intriguing, fascinating, applicable, and fun! I feel like I learn so much everyday, and I (can’t believe I’m saying this) love reading the textbook. Today I talk about operant conditioning in relation to parenting. This topic is vast and complex, and this episode merely scratches the surface. Specifically, I talk about reinforcement, exti...
