    Looking Back - The Journey and Our Joy: Season 1, Episode 10

    We can't believe it has been a full year of recording Refresh already! In episode 10, we reflect on some of our favorite conversations from the year, discuss our key takeaways, and spill the tea on what is coming next! As we close out the year and season 1 of Refresh, we leave you with this quote by bell hooks: “What we do is more important than what we say or what we say we believe.”  We hope our conversations inspire you to do the things that matter, the things that resonate with your heart, the things you know only YOU can do ... the things that refresh your spirit. See you in season 2!

    Write the Vision, Make It Plain: Season 1, Episode 6

    On June 19, 1865, two and a half years after Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, approximately 250,000 enslaved Black people in Texas learned that they were free. The pronouncement did not result in immediate release in every case, but it did bring hope to many. In this month’s episode, we honor the legacy of Juneteenth, discuss vision versus plans, and share ways to get clear on God’s vision for your life.
