  • Join me as I share about our recent mission trip to Pakistan, where my husband and I had the life-changing opportunity to help families break free from the grip of modern-day slavery in the brick kilns. Yes, slavery still exists—and it’s heartbreaking. In this episode, I share the highs and lows, the resilience of those who endure unthinkable hardships, and the joy of watching them embrace freedom.

    This story isn’t just for those interested in missions; it’s for anyone who’s ever felt trapped or hopeless. You'll find stories of unwavering hope, kindness, and deep faith. And the best part? You'll see how small acts of compassion can lead to profound change. I hope it inspires you to look at gratitude differently, to act, and maybe even join me one day on a trip like this.

    Are you ready to be uplifted, moved, and reminded of the beauty of human connection? Grab a tissue and tune in—you won’t regret it!

If you’ve ever felt that gritty, irritating sensation in your eyes after hours in front of a screen or experienced that “stuck” feeling in your eyelids at night, this episode is for you. Dry eyes aren’t just an inconvenience; they can impact your quality of life. So, I'm sharing the reasons behind dry eyes and, even better, practical, natural ways to relieve and prevent this discomfort.

    You'll get a chuckle out of some of my personal stories – like my insistence on sleeping with a fan on, even though it might make things worse. And if you’re looking for alternatives to those eye drops, I’ll introduce you to some surprising natural options, from omega-3s to simple eye exercises you can do anywhere. This episode is packed with easy solutions and real encouragement to make eye health a priority. So, if you’re tired of tired eyes, tune in to learn how to bring comfort back to your vision and make it a part of your wellness journey!

    Dr. Torkil Færø is a general practitioner, emergency doctor, documentary filmmaker, author, photographer, and globetrotter. As a medical student, he was the first to go abroad for Norwegian Doctors Without Borders when he worked in war-torn Angola in 1996. Through 25 years as a freelance doctor, he has worked in municipalities nationwide, had tens of thousands of consultations, and gained a unique picture of the diseases that plague us. He has learned that the cause is most often found in a lifestyle that stresses our body. He wanted to do something about that.

    Dr. Torkil is concerned with how we can get the most out of life. In the book "The Pulse Cure", he explains step by step how we can use the heart rate monitor or the smartphone to get to know our own body better and gain better control of the stress balance and the autonomic nervous system.

    Dr. Torkil himself has been given a new life by making several smart lifestyle changes. He hopes that everyone who wants better health and more energy to live life to the fullest will benefit from the measures he enjoys so much. He also has a big wish for the healthcare system: That it works preventively to a much greater extent and provides help for self-help than is the case today.

    Dr. Torkil Færø is also an award-winning photographer who has published photography art books, held exhibitions, and held photography workshops in many countries. He is an enthusiastic long-distance walker and has made the NRK films about pilgrimages to Nidaros and Santiago de Compostela.

As an attorney, she represented a Chinese refugee in her case for political asylum in the United States. This woman had been forcibly sterilized for having two children under China’s One Child Policy.

    Ms. Littlejohn launched Women’s Rights Without Frontiers to combat forced abortion and sterilization in China. In so doing, she learned about the way that Chinese-style totalitarianism operates and became alarmed to see it spreading all over the world through globalist organizations like the WHO, the UN, and the World Economic Forum. She co-founded the Stop Vaccine Passports Task Force and the Sovereignty Coalition. These two initiatives are ongoing and serve as precursors to the Anti-Globalist International.
