Family structure is fractured due to various factors, including societal pressures, economic challenges, and communication breakdowns. To mend it, fostering compassion and grace is crucial. Encouraging open dialogue, understanding individual needs, and prioritizing emotional well-being can strengthen family bonds.

Expressing your feelings when something bothers you is crucial for mental and emotional well-being. Embracing transparency cultivates a positive environment where individuals feel heard and valued, nurturing personal growth. It promotes open communication and fosters healthier relationships. Speaking up allows you to assert boundaries, leading to greater self-respect and understanding. Bottling up emotions can contribute to stress and anxiety, while sharing concerns provides relief and potential solutions. While this may not be an easy task accomplish, it is necessary for emotional maturity.

While I do not have this mastered by any means, I am getting better and thus getting emotionally healthier.

There is reason why your relationships are stained and it isn't always the other person's fault. Failure to give people grace can lead to strained relationships, misunderstandings, and resentment. It impedes empathy and mutual understanding, fostering negativity. Granting grace allows for compassion and forgiveness, fostering healthier connections and promoting personal growth for both individuals involved.

Do you give people the same grace you ask God for?

Dwelling in an alternate reality, carefully curated by society or social expectations, can shackle your potential and distort your life journey. 🛑Embrace authenticity! Every moment spent in a fabricated existence steals opportunities for genuine growth. 🌱 Choose the path less traveled, where your dreams flourish and authenticity reigns supreme. 🚀 Embark on your true journey, and live a life untainted by illusions. 🌟

On this episode of Tips and Tricks Podcast with Danielle Shelton, we talk about navigating dark spaces. Life can be overwhelming for all us especially when we choose our own path of darkness.

In the aftermath of navigating a dark journey, rediscovering connection with God requires introspection, prayer, and openness. We must take the time to seek solace in spiritual places, acknowledge vulnerabilities and ask for guidance.

Embrace each day with gratitude, finding light in moments of despair. Engage in community, sharing experiences and finding collective strength. In the stillness of meditation, listen for divine whispers that guide you toward healing and renewed faith.

October 7 - We often look to things and people to provide us with internal comfort. Ultimately, we must open ourselves up the truth that a relationship with God is the only real comfort.

A Prayer for Comfort

Today's prayer focuses on trusting God and being open to Guidance and Patience. I also threw in a prayer of Thankfulness for good measure.

On this episode of Tips and Tricks Podcast with Danielle Shelton, we are going to stop lying about being healed. Yes, we are. Today, we will stop villainizing anxiety and depression and recognize them for their place in our life. We are going to stop just being busy to avoid dealing with our Trauma. We are going to cut the crap!

First, we will acknowledge that healing is a process, not an endpoint. We will be honest with ourself about our emotions and vulnerabilities. We will seek support from trusted friends, family, or a therapist. We will practice self-awareness and self-compassion, allowing ourself to feel and express our true emotions without judgment. We will work on developing healthier coping mechanisms for emotional challenges. We will embrace personal growth and recognize that healing is ongoing. We will recognize that by being authentic with yourself and others, you can gradually let go of the need to pretend and build genuine emotional resilience.

Have you ever wondered why every action, no matter how small, has a consequence? From the personal decisions we make to the societal shifts we witness, there's a ripple effect that shapes our lives. Consequences are not perfectly timed. Did you know, for the most part, you won't know exactly when consequences are going to take place whether they are good or bad?

Somehow we've convinced ourselves that not only should we get to choose our consequences but we also get to choose when they happen, if they happen at all.

There are people in the world who are utterly shocked at consequences for actions.

On this episode, join me as I navigate the labyrinth of cause and effect, uncovering the reasons behind the existence of consequences. We'll unravel the mysteries of personal responsibility and how our choices influence our growth.

On this episode of Tips and Tricks Podcast, I talk about what it takes to find guidance, direction and clarity. There were times in my life when I felt lost and uncertain about my path in life. I was burdened by the constant noise of my daily life. I decided to challenge and confront the turmoil I was feeling. This journey was filled with darkness and rain. But I pushed forward. I ran. I refused to be stopped. It was at that point that I ran right into danger. I faced self doubt. I consulted with family and friends. I listened to motivational speeches. I did everything but the one thing I should have done.

Tune in to this episode to hear about a real-life storm and how I found clarity in the midst of confusion. I realized that finding clarity required me to be still amidst the chaos. Instead of fighting against the storm, I learned to surrender to its power. I anchored myself, both literally and metaphorically. There were moments when I was tempted to escape the storm. The noise of doubts, distractions, and societal expectations tried to drown out my inner voice

But I learned a life hack! Enjoy this episode! May it pour in to your soul as intended.

I believe the next Elon Musk is a 7 year old girl who can't afford a communication coach, so it's my duty to help her succeed with my free resources." - Brenden K.
After many years of doing presentation case competitions (think professional sports for nerds) in university, I accidentally developed a skill in helping others communicate effectively and started the YouTube channel MasterTalk because I realized that everything I was teaching them wasn't available for FREE on the Internet. I heard a ton of advice that didn't make much sense like "be yourself" or "get up on stage" or better "imagine everyone in their underpants". I pressed record on my phone, started filming videos on communication in my mom's basement and now the goal is to help everyone master this important skill.

I've also been featured on over 500+ podcasts including John Lee Dumas' Entrepreneurs on Fire.

Rich Lewis is an author, speaker and coach who focuses on centering prayer as a means of inner transformation. He teaches centering prayer in both his local and virtual community and offers one-on-one coaching. Rich’s newest book is titled, "Sitting with God: A Journey To Your True Self Through Centering Prayer". In 2013, Rich began to dabble in silent prayer, a term that’s often used as synonymous with centering prayer. He had heard and read that silence can transform you. He wanted to experience this transformation too. 

 
He forced himself to sit in silence. He began to test how long he could sit there. He started with one minute and increased it to three and even four minutes. It was difficult!

Silence and silent prayer are counter-cultural. They are very challenging to cultivate because everything in our culture seems to point in another direction. Yet, surprisingly, it is in silence that he has has found profound transformation. And that is the motivation for writing this book. He wants to share what he has discovered. 

He publishes weekly meditations, book reviews, and interviews on his site, "Silence Teaches". He has published articles for a number of organizations, including Contemplative Light, Abbey of the Arts, Contemplative Outreach, EerdWord, In Search of a New Eden, the Ordinary Mystic at Patheos, and the Contemplative Writer. ​

We talked about how hard it can be to find yourself, when everything around you is telling you to listen to them. Tune in as Rich shares his secret of Silent Prayer and how it changed his life.

He wants to keep the momentum going. He also coaches aspiring authors to turn their dreams into reality. 

Chance and I immediately connected on a wavelength of peace and strength. This episode is a MUST if you think you can't get out of your "middle".
