Are you in a season of waiting? Has it been years since you've seen your goal manifest or a prayer answered?
If so, you are NOT alone. There are some things I am still waiting on and for certain dreams to come true. I am learning that waiting can be the most difficult thing when you've been waiting for so long, trying your best, and haven't seen any results.
But one thing about waiting well is that you become prepared for the most amazing blessing God has in store for you. Because when God shows up, He gives us beyond what we can imagine.
Tune in to learn the 3 things I learned about WAITING.
What if I told you that your words are another tool to use in order to heal? Did you know that your words and what you speak have the power to make you whole or keep you broken?
At the beginning stages of my healing journey, I used words that were destructive, stagnant, and harmful to my healing process. It wasn't until I began going to therapy that I began to change my healing language and how I spoke to myself.
Since then, I began to incorporate healing language into my daily life. When I did, I became stronger, wiser, and healthier.
Tune into today's episode to learn about some of the words I used to become emotionally whole and healed.

Tune in to today's episode as I give you some tools and words to assist you with identifying negative feelings.
REMEMBER: Your feelings ONLY describe how you feel. It doesn't DEFINE WHO you are or your FUTURE.
It had come to a point in my life where I had to make a crucial decision. After some thought, I decided to do it because I knew it would benefit my life in a CONSTRUCTIVE way.

We've all had our fair share of being our own worst critic. Doing so can be difficult, challenging, and burdensome.
We all have an inner voice that will tell us to go left when we should go right. Or that voice that will discourage us from doing the very thing that God has called and equipped us to do.
That is why learning how to silence our inner critic is imperative. Check out today's podcast episode and learn 3 easily accessible steps on how to silence that inner critic.
