James 1:22 says, “be doers of the word, and not hearers only.” What does that mean? He asks us to fear not, forgive, love, rejoice, sacrifice… but how do we actually do that? Let’s combine God’s word with the practical application of mindset tools to better be doers of His word!

This wasn’t my initial episode idea but was put on my heart just before recording. This episode is for those of you going in to the holidays with a heavy heart or a weary soul. I’m here to pour love and Truth into you so you can sing “Hallelujah!”, even here - in the face of your trials. Remember, it’s more about our focus than the circumstance.

This episode is inspired by my sweet, observant 7 year old who saw an art installation and said, “it looks like a family tree but of thoughts”. That comment stuck with me and had me realizing that if we’re not intentional, we can get stuck in an old identity based on generational limiting beliefs. Here are my thoughts and some tips on how to make a lasting change that supports you!

Some main events: Jade visited her childhood home, Brandon cooked a brisket, and Lincoln hooked his finger.

A spiritual realization and Taylor swift lyrics collide in this episode about recognizing the source of thoughts and inspiration.
