Getting well is one thing.Living well is another.Thriving… that's something different. What does it really look like to live well—spirit, soul, and body? How do we grow in our faith, care for ourselves, navigate life's challenges, and keep becoming who God created us to be? Those are some of the questions we're exploring here. I'm Dana Lyons, and Get Well, Live Well & Thrive is a faith-centered podcast where I share real-life experiences, lessons I'm learning, and the questions that come up as I walk with Jesus. Sometimes we talk about the hard stuff—fear, uncertainty, disappointment, and seasons when life doesn't go as planned. Other times, it's about the everyday things that make a difference: caring for ourselves, finding joy, making room for what matters, and learning to recognize God at work in our lives. I don't have all the answers, and I'm not here to tell you how to live your life. I'm simply sharing what I'm learning, what God is teaching me, and what it might look like to live out our faith in everyday life. Whether you're navigating a difficult season, looking for encouragement, or simply curious about growing in your relationship with Jesus, there's room for you here. Come as you are. Let's keep learning, growing, and discovering what it means to get well, live well, and thrive—together.

    What Are You Choosing to See? | Finding Beauty in the Middle of Real Life

    What if what needs to change isn’t what’s happening around you, but what you choose to see? Sometimes circumstances don’t change, people don’t change, and frustrations don’t disappear—but shifting where we focus can change how we experience it all. After some time away from the podcast, Dana is back with an honest conversation about what she’s learning in this season of life: being present, putting down the distractions, navigating midlife, and intentionally looking for beauty—even in the people and circumstances that can be frustrating or hard.
