In today's episode Marci is going to teach you the power of using the three little letters. Have you ever found yourself trying to navigate a situation that may feel unsettling or an emotion you want to resist feeling because you might think it will take you down?

The power of AND is a simple technique Marci uses personally and teaches to her clients of how to navigate life experiences and be REAL when doing so! And she wants you to know about this life hack as well.

It's okay to feel nervous, anxious or scared, even sad about something when that is what is true for you.  Most of us think it's best  to push negative feelings away or pretend they aren't there, thus we end up denying our true experience and robbing ourselves of paying attention to how we think and feel.

When you learn to add the word AND, you acknowledge what is real for you AND how you want to think and feel so that you empower yourself to function in a way that is also  real and true for you too! It's possible to experience both opposites at the same time.

Get your favorite blanket or put your earbuds in and take Marci for a walk as you listen to this powerful and easy to use method.

Marci's favorite week is coming! 

The week of  March 4th. It's Because I Can Week and you are invited to celebrate with Marci!

Marci started the tradition of Because I Can week six or seven years ago. It all stems from her last conversation she had with her sister before she died.

Because I Can week is a week where we honor being alive by living more intentionally with a grateful heart and by doing the things we love to do or "get" to do.

Because we Can...

We also remember and honor those that can't. And we do things for them too. 

Because we Can...

Join in on the fun. Today's episode will give you all the details. Marci will also speak to those that have hearts that still  raw and feeling shattered from the loss of a loved one. 

She also suggests that the anniversary of the death of your loved one doesn't have to be depressing. Marci will teach you how to be real with what you are feeling AND how to make it a good week too! It's possible to have a tender heart AND still have an uplifting and inspiring week.

BECAUSE WE CAN! Let's go!

In today's episode Marci is talking all about getting needs met. For a lot of us it can be tough to speak up and verbalize what we need. For example you may have started to believe when you were growing up you wouldn't be loved if you had needs so you developed a pattern of keeping quiet. But you have needs and a void inside you that needs to be taken care of.

Listen in as Marci gives you 4 steps of how to get your needs met.

💖 Love Inside Out - Truth's about Self Love 💖

Welcome back to the Love Inside Out Valentine's Special Series! In this second bonus episode, we're diving deep into the essential truths about self-love. As we've learned, our relationship with ourselves sets the tone for all other relationships in our lives. When we nurture a healthy and loving relationship with ourselves, our capacity to love others expands exponentially.

Today, we're debunking the misconception that self-love is selfish. Many of us have been conditioned to believe that prioritizing our own needs and desires is egocentric or wrong. But the truth is, self-love is a fundamental human need—a necessary ingredient for a fulfilling life.

Think about it: when you neglect self-care or dismiss your own needs, you're running on an empty tank. Just like a car needs fuel to function, you need self-love to thrive. Neglecting self-love can lead to feelings of resentment, exhaustion, and bitterness, ultimately affecting your relationships and overall well-being.

But what does self-love really look like in action? It's not about indulgence or selfishness—it's about nurturing yourself in the same way you would care for a beloved friend or cherished possession. Self-love is about recognizing your worth, honoring your needs, and treating yourself with kindness and compassion.

In today's episode, we'll explore practical strategies for practicing self-love in your daily life. From setting boundaries to indulging in self-care rituals, we'll uncover the actions that fuel self-love and nourish your soul.

And remember, self-love is a lifelong journey—not a destination. Just like any relationship, it requires consistent effort and attention. But the rewards are immeasurable: improved outlook, stronger relationships, better health, and a deeper sense of fulfillment.

Join us as we embrace the essence of self-love and unlock the transformative power it holds. Hit that play button and let's continue our journey toward love inside out.And don't forget to tune in for Day 3 of "The Self Love Shift: Valentines Special Series," where we'll explore the foundation of solid self-love.

Join Marci in Episode #47 of "Understanding a Faith Journey," where we embark on a compassionate exploration of faith, belief, and the intricate paths people tread in their spiritual journeys. In a heart-to-heart conversation with friends, emotions run high as they grapple with the evolving faith of their children, often labeled as a "faith crisis." However, Marci will challenge you to consider the perspective—could it be a matter of the lens through which we view it?

In a time where questioning faith is increasingly common, we delve into the notion that having doubts and stepping away from the faith we were raised in might not be a negative experience. What if it's okay to have questions? In this episode, we shed new light on how to understand and support those questioning their beliefs, whether it's your child, spouse, friend, or even yourself.

We discuss three crucial stages of faith development:

1. Inherited Faith: The belief system passed down from parents, often unquestioned and followed without extensive personal exploration. Even in this stage, individuals may experience personal witnesses and strengthen their faith.
2. Personal Belief: A stage marked by questioning inherited beliefs, potentially causing destabilization, guilt, and the feeling of doing something wrong. It's a time of searching, exploration, and open-mindedness to other perspectives.
3. Unifying Faith: The stage where faith becomes a cohesive whole, embracing paradoxes, avoiding rigid thinking, and holding space for opposing beliefs. This stage allows for a deeper understanding, answers to tough questions, and peace with uncertainty.

Throughout the episode, we address the role of judgment and fear in the faith journey. Judgment, whether from those in Inherited Faith or those on a faith journey, can cause anguish and hinder healthy support. Fear of the unknown, eternal consequences, and societal judgment is common but needs to be navigated with understanding and empathy.

The conclusion emphasizes that a faith journey is a natural and healthy process, akin to the varied developmental milestones in human growth. 

Join us as we navigate the intricacies of faith, questioning, and growth, fostering understanding and empathy for those on diverse paths of belief.

On a scale from 1-10 how good are you allowing emotions? Most humans bend over backwards to not feel them. Some thing its touchy feely and it's stupid. 

A large portion of us weren't taught about emotions, let alone how to manage them! Rarely did we see it modeled growing up. It makes sense that since we don't know much about them or what to do with them, that we would resist feeling them. Society has taught us its a sign of weakness to show emotion.

In today's episode Marci will talk about the importance of allowing emotion. She gives the you the 4 stages of working through feeling an emotion. 1. Awareness, 2. Acknowledge, 3. Accept 4. Understanding and Grace

Learning the skill of allowing emotions may feel clunky at first. Either way you are uncomfortable, so why not choose the discomfort that moves you through it?

Welcome to a thought-provoking and liberating episode of " Making Decisions from Guilt and Shame...Let's Not!" In today's show, we're diving deep into the tricky waters of guilt and shame and how they often drive us to do things for the wrong reasons or we may not truly want to do. Join us as we explore the impact of "shoulding" on ourselves and how it leads to an avalanche of negative emotions.

As members of the church, we're taught that we should do certain things to be considered "good." Whether it's attending church, reading scriptures, praying, or participating in various activities, we create pressure to be consistent. But here's the twist—when we fall short, guilt and shame rear their ugly heads.

In this episode Marci will shed light on how guilt often leads to shame. We find ourselves trapped in a vicious cycle, feeling like we're "bad" because we haven't lived up to these expectations. It's like carrying a heavy shawl of shame everywhere we go.

But fear not! We'll explore a revolutionary concept: "doing things from alignment, not from 'shoulds.'" Imagine taking action because you genuinely want to, not because you feel obligated. Understanding your "Why" is crucial, whether it's seeking a deeper connection with God, growing spiritually, or strengthening your testimony.

Breaking free from the shoulds doesn't mean abandoning your practices altogether. Instead, we'll discuss the power of setting a Minimum Baseline. It's time to be kind to ourselves and commit to manageable actions that we know we can follow through on. Remember, small steps lead to significant changes!

Are you ready to break free from the guilt and shame that hold you back? Join us in this transformative episode as we choose "I WANT AND I WILL" over "I SHOULD." Let's cultivate self-compassion and embrace the freedom to make choices that align with our true selves. Remember, God sees our hearts and knows our intentions. It's time we see ourselves the same way.

Tune in to Making Decisions from Guilt and Shame... Let's Not! —because guilt and shame have met their match in grace and charity! Let's rewrite the narrative and embark on a journey of self-acceptance and empowerment.
