  • Today on the podcast, I talk with Faith from Georgia!
    She’s 37 and single so she really wants to know how to know when you are trusting God with your dating life — versus when you are taking control of the situation yourself.
    Do you have to sit back and wait for things to happen, or can you take initiative?
    And what if you are a woman, where does that leave you in the equation of making a dating relationship happen – considering some people think it’s wrong for a woman to take an initiative.
    We talked about what waiting on God actually means and what it doesn’t mean… And how to be proactive with your love life in the meantime!!
    It’s an episode every single who is wanting to date should listen to!!!!

  • Is it possible to serve God and stay filled all at the same time?
    We know for a fact Jesus did it. But why is it that so many struggle to keep the “balance?” What does avoiding burnout look like for everyday pastors and leaders who are juggling family and ministry and life obligations? How do you even make time to fill up?

    Today I have a conversation with Pastor Tim Timberlake, who so graciously wrote the foreword for Soul Care, and we discuss what avoiding burnout looks like practically in his life today as a husband, father, and senior pastor of Celebration Church. We talk about how he prioritizes resting his body as well as his time with Jesus.
    You’re not going to want to miss this FINAL episode of the Soul Care series.

  • Rest isn't a luxury, it's a necessity.

    Even Jesus, who was by nature God, yet also fully man -- took the time to REST. But so many Christians struggle to believe that it's okay to slow down, pace yourself, and rest - in a culture that encourages and affirms hustle, grind, and a fast-pace.

    In this on-air session, I talk to Kayla about the importance of rest and we unpack her struggle to live it out in her life, as well as help her get to the roots of her why. If you struggle to rest, this episode is for you.

  • Today I am joined by Lindsi who called in to discuss her tendency to ignore or repress her emotions — until they suddenly and forcefully come up to the surface of her life.
    She feels like her emotions take over at that point, and she doesn’t know how to control them. She gets set off by the smallest things, ends up engaging in conflict — and she is desperately trying to figure out how to navigate this unwanted cycle.
    We talk about the rhythm of TUNE IN and how important it is to understand and practice in order for us to engage in SOUL CARE.

  • So much of how we feel and what we do, is influenced by what’s going on underneath the surface of our lives.
    This is why we have to take the time to “tune in”.
    We’re tackling the rhythm of TUNE IN and today I am joined by Candace Cameron Bure for an on-air counseling session where we process her people-pleasing tendencies, where they come from, the work she has to do in order to fight off her people-pleasing nature, and what God has been teaching her in the process.

  • Do you find that it’s hard to be present?
    Why do so many of us get stuck on the fears of the future, discontent in the here and now, or regrets from the past? Or what about the devices that we have living in our pockets, tempting us to scroll, and click, and watch — wasting our everyday moments?
    Today, I have an on-air session with Chris where we talk about his personal struggle to stay present, battle discontent, and enjoy the life he’s been given today.

  • Is self-care biblical?
    So many Christians are held back from the message of practicing SOUL CARE because of misbeliefs about the theology of self-care and soul-care. They have been taught that the Christian way is “self neglect”.
    In this special episode, I am joined by my new friend, theologian Joel Mudamalle, as we differentiate between soul care and self-care, as well as unpack some verses that help us make sense of the importance of caring for ourselves and why it matters.
    Tune in to this important episode on the theology of self-care!

  • What happens when you are on the line of burnout on a regular basis?

    Today’s caller, Liz from California, feels like she’s constantly straddling the line of burnout. She has a really hard time with boundaries, especially with ministry. She feels like she’s taught to “trust the Lord” and push through, but not actually replenish herself. She’s watching people in ministry burn out left and right, and no one is teaching her a better way to do it. She’s even seen her own leaders filled with stress and fatigue — but it doesn’t look or feel healthy, and she doesn’t believe that is “trusting the Lord”.

    So where do you go when you’re bad at boundaries and no one has taught you any better? How do you even set boundaries in ministry when there is so much to do?

    We talk through all of this in today’s conversation.

  • Why do so many Christians struggle with boundaries?

    We are taught that boundaries are wrong, sinful, or selfish — and that we should always say YES and be ready to sacrifice and serve at a moment’s notice.

    But is this really the way of Jesus? Or could this lead us down a path of emotional burnout, codependency, and unhealthy relationships?

    Today, we continue this Soul Care series with an on-air counseling session with my friend, Bianca Olthoff. Bianca has been on the podcast before, processing pain from the past (listen here if you missed it!) but today we dive into the topic of BOUNDARIES and learning to protect your heart and calling.

    Bianca shares how she lived so many years with low to no boundaries, and the damage that caused in her life and in her relationships. We talk about her childhood, and how the concept of low boundaries began to take root in her life…and followed her into adulthood.

    It’s probably my favorite conversation on the Soul Care series so far, and I know it will challenge and change you!! If boundaries have been a weakness for you, you HAVE TO make time to listen to this episode from start to finish! Setting healthy boundaries is the Jesus way.

    Find out how!

  • How many friends do we actually need? And does the desire to connect change through different seasons of life, or is it a sign that something is wrong? Today as we continue the Soul Care series, I have Cindy from South Africa joining me on the hotline to talk about her recent journey with friendships, and her decreasing desire to connect with people. We process whether or not this is healthy, where it might be coming from, and how she should respond to these feelings. It’s a really good conversation if you’ve ever wondered what friendship in adulthood should actually look and feel like.

  • Isn't it amazing how we can feel so disconnected, when our culture is more "connected" than ever before through social media?
    Today as we continue the Soul Care series, I have an on-air counseling session with Carlos Whitaker, and we dive into his feelings of disconnect from his friends and family, ironically, during the rise of his online connections on social media. He had a lot of "followers" on social media, but not many real "friends". We talk about the roots that got him to that point in life, and unpack some things from his childhood that influenced his difficulty connecting in real life. And then we process what he's been doing to learn to connect in relationships in healthy and life-giving ways.
    It's such a meaningful and insightful conversation, so make sure you tune in!

  • Is there such a thing as going TOO FAR with caring for our body? Though the church culture can be silent about caring for our body, the world seems to make too much of it. How do you know when you’ve taken it too far and then what do you do about it?

    Today on the podcast I have an on-air session with Emily who feels like she tends to go TOO FAR when it comes to fitness and exercise, and wants to know how to find the right balance of Soul Care as it relates to nourishing her body. I help her find the source of the “lack of balance” (it’s pretty interesting!) and figure out what to do next today on Talk To Me!

  • We continue our Soul Care Series today starting with the rhythm of NOURISH. The functioning of our bodies impacts every other part of who we are, but it’s one of the most neglected messages in the church.

    Today I have an on-air counseling session with fitness influencer Jasmine Mays, as we dig into her own story of learning to nourish her body after growing up in a world where she actually abused her body, without realizing it, by the way she was treating it. We talk about the impact of trauma on how we care for ourselves (or neglect ourselves) and it gets deep fast.

    But this conversation is so healing and life changing, and an essential part to Soul Care. Nourishing our body leads us to nourishing our souls. Give it a listen today on Talk To Me!

  • Why do some people have a tendency to feel more burnt out than others? Why is it so hard to break cycles of feeling depleted and drained? Why is it so hard for some people to say no, to set boundaries, and to care for their souls? 

    Today on the podcast, we start our brand new SOUL CARE SERIES to answer all these questions and dig into some of these important topics in anticipation of my new book! 

    My first conversation is with Cyndi from New York who is struggling with burnout…and doesn’t know why she keeps repeating patterns that she knows aren’t healthy. She goes, goes, goes at work until she feels totally drained — and feels like her family gets her leftovers. The most important question is WHY….before we can practice healthy rhythms to care for our soul we have to get to the root of why we don’t to begin with. I help her unpack this in this really important conversation today on Talk To Me.

  • We often talk about letting go of the negative labels that people have put on us… but what about the positive ones?
    What happens when our entire identity is built on the success we achieve in this world… And then we have to lay it all down?
    Today on the podcast, I have an on-air counseling session with Demi Leigh Tebow, as she opens up about the struggle and depression she felt laying down the crown of Miss universe… and realizing how much her identity was found in unreliable things.
    We trace this “self sufficiency” back to her childhood, and unpack some of the patterns that led her to that difficult place … and the lessons she has learned and continues to learn in placing her identity in Christ alone.
    There is no label bad enough or great enough worth holding onto … except what Jesus says.
    This conversation was so good, and I know you are going to love it as well.

  • How do you go from the adult industry to ministry?
    What are the family dynamics, identity issues, and past trauma that go into someone entering the adult industry— and then how do you find your way out?
    Today on the podcast, I have a vulnerable on air counseling session with Brittni De La Mora — as we talk about her transition into the adult industry, and then her transition out of it.
    We talk about the darkness and pain in the adult world, and how Jesus changed everything for her….
    And then she opens up about what her life, marriage and family looks like today with some of her history behind her.
    I have loved getting to know her and I know you are going to enjoy this counseling session so much!!

    Today on the podcast, I talk to Stephanie who recently moved to a new place and is looking for ways to connect with others and form community.

  • We don’t often consider the toll that full time ministry takes on pastors and leaders in the church.
    The role of leading people spiritually also comes at a cost — and often times that cost can be great!
    Today on the podcast I process this with Pastor Matt Brown, and specifically what to do when Ministry life is really hard.
    In our on-air counseling session, we talk about what it feels like to have your life and family under a microscope, to feel judged by bystanders, and to be rejected by people you love… as well as how to respond in healthy ways to these really hard life moments.
    If you or someone you know is in ministry this conversation is so important!
