    7 Simple Ideas to Help You Get Organized

    Life can feel overwhelming when our spaces—and our schedules—are cluttered. And sometimes the issue isn’t that we don’t have enough time, but that we don’t have enough margin. In this episode of Imagine Yourself, we’re sharing seven simple, realistic ideas to help you get more organized, pulled from a past conversation with clutter-free living expert Deanna Yates. These aren’t extreme or all-or-nothing approaches. Instead, they’re practical shifts: organizing routines and the things that support them, creating systems that fit your current season, and learning how small habits can make everyday life feel lighter. Our hope is that these ideas don’t just help tidy up your home, but also give you back time, mental energy, and space to be more present—with the people you love, and with God.   Contact Deanna Yates:  WannaBeClutterFree.com  Send a text For more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF, visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.

    Think About What You’re Thinking About

    We spend so much time doing, reacting, and pushing forward that we rarely stop to think about what’s actually going on inside our own minds, or to invite God into that space. In this episode of Imagine Yourself Podcast, co-hosts Lanée Blaise and Sandy Kovach encourage a slower, more intentional check-in that centers our thoughts, our hearts, and our faith. In a culture driven by hustle and constant noise, our thoughts can quietly drift toward pressure, guilt, and perfectionism. This conversation explores how slowing down helps us get centered with God, recognize what’s shaping our inner dialogue, and replace harsh self-talk with grace. When we learn to think about what we’re thinking about and invite God into that process, clarity grows, peace deepens, and we begin to move forward with greater intention. What You’ll Hear in This Episode Why awareness of your thoughts is a spiritual practice and how noticing what’s happening inside you can realign your mind with God’s truth.How to get centered with God in a hustle-driven world without adding another “spiritual task” to your to-do list.The connection between inner dialogue and grace and how faith-filled self-talk can replace guilt and pressure.Why rest and reflection aren’t optional for spiritual health and how slowing down helps you hear God more clearly.How pausing before reacting changes everything from your emotions to your faith to your everyday decisions.🎧 Listen now  Send a text For more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF, visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.

    Breaking up with Diet Culture

    Ever feel like it might be time to break up with diet culture:  that whole mindset that equates thinner with “better,” moralizes food, and keeps you stuck in endless rules and guilt? You’re not alone. This week, we revisit a powerful conversation with Erin Tennant, a national board-certified health and wellness coach and self-described “recovering dieter.” Erin opens up about losing—and keeping off—over 130 pounds not through strict diets or obsessive calorie counting, but by shifting her mindset, practicing self-compassion, and building a thoughtful, peace-filled relationship with food. In this episode, you’ll hear: how Erin stepped off the dieting roller coaster and found a sustainable path forwardmindset shifts that turn “failure” into “trial and correction”real-life food choices that work in everyday situationsa kinder view of movement as self-care, not punishmentencouragement to honor your body as a God-given gift and embrace new mercies each dayIf you’re ready to loosen diet culture’s grip and pursue genuine health and freedom, this episode is for you.

    It’s OK If You’re Not Feeling Merry

    The holidays are often wrapped in lights, laughter, and expectations of joy...but what if that’s not where your heart is this season? If December feels more heavy than merry, you’re not alone. In this episode, we create space for honest conversation, faith-filled encouragement, and permission to slow down. We explore how God meets us not just in celebration, but in quiet reflection, unanswered prayers and even grief.  You don’t have to force joy or fake cheer to be faithful. If expectations, obligations, or traditions feel overwhelming, it’s okay to step back. Celebrating quietly, simply, or differently may be exactly what you need this year; it can even help you keep your focus on the reason for the season. This episode is a reminder that God’s peace doesn’t always come wrapped in sparkle, it often arrives gently, one day at a time. If you’re craving grace, reassurance, or a moment to breathe and reset this Christmas season, press play and listen now. _____ WATCH Lanee's movie on Amazon Prime:  "REKINDLED FOR CHRISTMAS" CDC List of Mental Health Resources Send a text For more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF, visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.

    The Answer to Prayer I Didn’t Want… But Needed

    Have you ever prayed for something—clarity, healing, change—and then realized the answer you got was not what you expected… or wanted? Maybe it stretched you, humbled you, or forced you to face something uncomfortable. In this episode of Imagine Yourself, Lanée Blaise and Sandy Kovach get honest about those surprising moments when God answers our prayers in the exact way we need, not the way we asked. Sometimes the lesson comes wrapped in irony. Sometimes it stings. But often, on the other side, we find healing, clarity, and peace. Inside the Episode God’s answers don’t always match our expectations. Prayer isn’t a wish list—it’s a relationship that shapes us.Uncomfortable experiences can reveal what needs to change inside us. Sandy shares how her own prayer about judgment led to a very unexpected (and humbling) answer.Obedience and distraction are real struggles. Lanée opens up about moments when God’s answer required more trust than she was ready for.Silence creates space for clarity. Sometimes the most productive thing we can do is put the phone down and sit quietly in God’s presence.If you’ve ever felt frustrated or discouraged by unanswered prayers—or prayers answered in unwanted ways—this episode offers encouragement, hope, and a reminder that God sees the bigger picture.
