Something to Bless

If you've ever wanted something so bad but you didn't believe it could happen, it probably never came to be or didn't turn out the way iy=t could have because you didn't believe in it in the first place.

One of my mentors, Sean Croxton, has this saying: Little by little, a little becomes a lot. If you want to have any result in life, you must start with what you have, no matter how small it seems.  By principle, we are designed to multiply and increase. This is how God planned it. But for so many of us, we allow impatience, disbelief, and lack of commitment, to hold us back. The result? We never r...

Waiting and trusting can be hard! But both are necessary if we want the best outcomes in life. Anything significant in life requires time.

When...

We are all called to forgive others, no matter the offense. Why? Because God tells us to. Not only that, but the only way that WE will receive forgiveness is if WE FORGIVE. Does forgiveness= forgetting or accepting wrongs? NO! Far from it.  In today's episode, I'm breaking down what forgiveness really means and how we're all called to demonstrate it.  In order to have true peace, you may need to f...

One of the most selfless things we can do is to live a life that sets up our future generations for blessings upon blessings.

The term narcissist seems to get tossed around a bit these days. People who may demonstrate selfishness or a sense of entitlement may incorrectly be labeled as such. In my conversation with today's guest, we get an inside look at what true narcissism looks like as well as the toll it can have on family members.  Unable to continue living under the same roof with her husband, Christelle found the c...

Whether you are a parent or not, the way in which you live your life is impacting others. As parents, we can never be perfect and we're not expected to even try. What we can do, however, is be aware of the decisions we make and the lifestyle that we choose to live and to consider how it impacts our children and other loved ones.  Whether it is your physical health, marriage or relationship, financ...

We're so used to hearing the terms 'self care' and 'self love' but what does that really mean? I like to think about this as being well from within. How do we address this?

How is our mental, emotional, and spiritual health?...

Part of creating the life you desire is your ability to decide to do so. If we could learn to be firm in our minds about what we will or will not accomplish, everything would be different. Many of us get caught up in the HOW instead of focusing on the WHAT, keeping ourselves stuck and frustrated. In today's episode, I'm reading a powerful article that teaches us how to  become a firm decision make...

Most people don't realize the power they truly have over their thought life. They also don't realize that a single thought can lead to their ultimate joy or pain.  In this episode, I am offering suggestions for practicing having thoughts that work for us and not against us. Over time, this practice leads to new automatic thought patterns that are positive, productive, and powerful. While we're not...
