It's been a minute since we sat down and recorded a podcast. Some heavy challenges have come to a head this summer for our family so we thought we'd talk about "Seeing Light and Hope in Dark Moments". This is as much a conversation for us at is for you.

Show Highlights:


Resetting
We tend to give, give, give and not make time for ourselves
Why do I have to cry? Why am I not strong?
Recognize you are in seasons
Being overwhelmed by what is happening in the world 
The true core of today's challenges is due to one thing... the lack of love
How do I with a pure, honest, heart say "Thy Will be done"
Be the strength while finding the strength
When you turn and serve others you invariably lift yourself
Choosing to love no matter what the situation is
Be the change that you hope to see in the world
I'm going to choose love!
The Grinch and his little shriveled up heart was healed by one little girl that saw the beauty in him.

We'd love to hear from you.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend! First of all we want to thank all of the men and women who have dedicated their lives to fight for and preserve freedom. We truly appreciate your dedication, sacrifice and service.

Are you tired of the excuses? Excuses from other people frustrate you but why do we let ourselves get away with excuses? Time to reset, put forth some serious effort, not.meager attempt, and really pursue our goals

Show highlights:


Thank you to all the men and women who serve in the military
10 Day Challenge group - to take down the bad habits you’ve slid into during the COVID-19 quarantine
Time to recommit and refocus on your 2020 goals
When you get derailed and off track reset
Get into problem solving mode and action
Be willing to shift, adapt and push forward when and obstacle hits. Focus on the goal not the path
Sometimes we miss the mark with our efforts because we don’t have all the information
On the flip side don’t allow yourself to get into analysis paralysis because you are over analyzing
Key is to execute

Thank you for joining us every week

Mahalo!

We as leaders can't lead without self mastery
