Join me as I discuss the dangers of heart disease and how to lower your risk, as well as how to get started on intentional fitness training in your life. Then I dive into the ultimately most important thing about personal well-being: your spiritual fitness.
This Tuesday's message is a powerful one and hits close to home. It is important to celebrate your birthday. Not only your physical birth. But your spiritual birth as well. Every life matters to God. Yours is no exception. Begin prioritizing your life, by never forgetting to celebrate it! If you are interested in learning more and maybe even working together with a certified life coach, let's schedule a discovery session at https://www.terrihamman.com/discovery-session.

Today, I have invited Felix Jones, the Assistant Principle of Kaiser High School in Fontana California, to be my guest and talk about how to navigate education during the pandemic.
Felix offers expert advice on how to navigate life and education by intentionally setting structure in your family and sticking to a schedule—setting a space specifically for your child to learn successfully during the pandemic. Felix also talks about the importance of “belonging” and building stronger relationships at home with our children, the teachers and the school districts during these unprecedented times.
Join me as Tannel Jones, a Marriage and Family Therapist, shares her wisdom and insight on how to not only survive, but thrive in these unprecedented times!
In this episode, we will shine the light on the importance of mental health awareness and the impact this pandemic has had on the family individually and as a whole. Tannel also touches on the topic of human trafficking and the fact that, though we may all be at home and not seeing the evidences of such things, we must be aware that these things are still happening. And we must encourage Christians everywhere to be a light in the darkness, pray diligently, and check in on our neighbors—being the eyes and ears for someone else.
Join me as Tannel Jones, a Marriage and Family Therapist, and I have a conversation about how God might be using these unprecedented times to draw us near to Him by focusing on what really matters in light of eternity.
Tannel raises the question, “What if this physical pandemic is really more about our spiritual issues.” Issues such as of focusing on God and not floundering like fish out of water, so that we might flourish and grow, becoming the people of God He has called us to be.
Please join me as I introduce myself and my new podcast, Tuesday Talk with Terri. I would like to spend this time helping you get to know me a little better and share how God had called me to step into this new space. Where it is my goal to encourage, equip and empower women to discover the same source of hope, health, healing, and wellness that leads to healthy and whole living that God has called each one of us too.
