Another Beautiful Life

According to David Richo, author of How to be an Adult in Relationships, there are the 5 A’s that you will find in healthy and intimate relationships. They are: Attention, Acceptance, Appreciation, Affection, and Allowing.

In this third part of this series, we’re talking about the final two, Affection and Allowing.  Join me as we discover how each of these build upon one another and can be used as a guideline to help you assess if your relationships are functioning in a loving and adult way.

What would it be like for you if you just let people be people without trying to change them or wish they were different? Your spouse, or your child, or your Mom, or that crazy neighbor? That’s what acceptance is: Embracing people for who they are, with all their funny ways of doing things: that noise, that tick, that obsession, those things that drive you crazy.

In this part-two episode, we’re talking about Acceptance and Appreciation from David Ricoh’s 5 A’s to “Mindful Loving” to create more healthy relationships.

Do you remember hearing, “Treat others the way you want to be treated”? That’s the Golden Rule. But how often do we actually do that? What’s keeping us from doing it?

Every action that we take, thought that we think, or word that we speak comes directly from what we believe. Today, I’m “airing my dirty laundry” and telling on myself and my shortcomings. But I’m also sharing what I was finally able to see as my belief system that seriously needed changing that allowed me to “do right” and treat others the way I wanted to be treated. Join me.

Has something happened in your life and you just want God to tell you why it happened? Would you be able to handle the truth if He told you? 

What if I told you that you could get God’s truth and be settled and content without knowing the ‘why’?

Join me today as I show you how to integrate brain science and Biblical faith to be able to see your circumstance from a different, higher perspective, so that you can handle any truth.

I know, you can’t actually hold your breath for six years. But metaphorically, apparently you can and not even know it. 

That is exactly my felt experience these past 6 to 8 weeks. And I didn’t realize that I’d been holding my breath until I exhaled.

What did “holding my breath” actually look like?  Disassociation - an involuntary survival instinct that helps protect us from mental and physical pain. The brain and body cannot handle processing all that needs to be processed when you’ve experienced trauma. So, it waits until it’s safe enough to do so. And it “exhales.” 

And when it decides to exhale, the processing begins. But you may not even be consciously aware of what’s going on. The subconscious is driving all of it.

This episode focuses on the continuation of healing after trauma.

This is the last of the Rewind series where I’m bringing back the most downloaded and requested podcast episodes. This week’s Rewind – episode 146 – is The Blame Game.

The Blame Game is one game that the more you play, the more you lose. Blaming others is a common human behavior where individuals attribute their problems, mistakes, or failures to other people rather than taking responsibility themselves. 

Blame is altogether negative and unproductive. It leads to bitterness, resentment, and fracture relationships. Blaming others can also suck you into a vortex of negative behavior and attitudes where you become trapped in victim mentality. And when you feel like a victim, you feel powerless and unable to change your life. 

Today I talk about how to quit the The Blame Game so you can break free from this destructive cycle and grow emotionally, as well as in your faith. Then you’ll begin to really love the life you’re living. Now, that’s a winning game!

This is the fourth in the Rewind series where I’m bringing back the most downloaded and requested podcast episodes. This week's Rewind is A Crisis Of Faith.

Have you ever had a time in your life when you felt like you really knew something to be true, and it proved you totally wrong? 

Today's episode is going to be a very real and raw conversation about my personal 'Crisis of Faith' that came after believing that God would come rescue my husband out of his debilitating back pain, and me out of my fear of losing...everything.

This is the third of the Rewind series where I’ll be bringing back the most downloaded and requested podcast episodes. 

Grief is something that we all experience if we have lost anything in our lives that’s of real significance to us. And that’s not limited to the death of a person. Grief comes when we’ve experienced a loss of any kind. Whether that’s something or someone.  

But grief can feel like a gremlin or a monster that is hunting us down that will kill us; or at the very least, send us into deep depression and ruin our lives. We fear grief. So, we try our hardest to avoid it, ignore it, pretend it’s not there.

Today, I want to suggest that grief is not a gremlin at all; it’s a gift. Join me as I tell you why and how to welcome it into your life.

In this week’s episode, I share about a pattern in my life that I’ve recognized. And I’ve finally discovered the source and what it all means. Rest.

Did you know that we, as humans, were designed for rhythms of rest in our life. But sadly, many of us don’t recognize when we’re being called to rest. God designed rest as a gift to us. And He’s made provisions to do so. Join me as I provide a four-question evaluation you can use for your own life to see if you’re in a place where you need to rest and reset.

So many times, we allow others’ opinions to dictate how we see ourselves. We may even let Satan have a say in that. And sometimes it’s our own brain creating a story that is negative or even a flat out lie. 

In this episode, I share a recent talk I gave to a youth group during their annual summer retreat. This information is not just for youths! I hear from my adult coaching clients all the time that they wish they’d had this information when they were a teenager. The information I share in this podcast is life changing! Join me!

We don’t have to take offense. Ever.

Taking offense by someone’s actions, behaviors, or words just leads to resentment and anger, which ultimately results in bitterness. And bitterness could kill us emotionally, spiritually, and perhaps even physically.

In 5-minutes, I talk about how to take no offense, and instead how to use curiosity to bring compassion.
