    Season 3, Episode 6: Moving Forward When People Try To Hold You Back

    In this episode, Destini and T. J. discuss their experiences of feeling drawn to new things and new experiences/places and how they have been met with people questioning their motives, abilities, and reasoning in an effort to help that is more often experienced as opposition that is meant to hold us back.  They discuss how they have had to deal with people holding them back when they have felt called to move forward in different ways and what has worked or been helpful to them in those situations.  Have you ever felt called to something that was only met by everyone around you with pessimism, defeatism, and negative opinions accompanied by what "You should be doing" statements instead?  Join us in the conversation at idiopod.com and send your comments to idiopodcast@gmail.com.  Rate, review, and subscribe.

    Season 3, Episode 5: A Mini Spiritual Direction Session with Destini and TJ Part 1

    In this episode, Destini takes the role of spiritual director for T. J. in a slightly shortened version of a spiritual direction session.  Don't worry, T. J. edited out most of the silence and waiting on God, and time spent thinking so it's not a terrible listening experience hopefully.  As always, find us on Facebook and Instagram.  Rate, review, subscribe, and share with your friends.  Reach out to us at idiopodcast@gmail.com with your comments, questions, and suggestions.

    Idiopod Season 3, Episode 4: Embracing the Middle of Uncertainty

    Today Destini and T. J. talk about the tendency to want to take on more than you can handle and how it can be challenging to hold both boundaries and openness to new opportunities and adventure at the same time.

    Season 3 Episode 3 - Turning The Page

    Destini and TJ try something a little bit different and let 5 minutes of meditation and what comes up dictate the direction of the show.  What came up?  The idea of embracing new seasons and new things, turning the page to a new chapter of life, while also allowing space to grieve and process the loss of the closing chapter.  We related this idea to our lives and specifically our current journeys with switching churches and how that lines up with our 2-year spiritual direction class coming to a close.  If you've ever been caught between seasons of life, not knowing what to embrace, then you can probably relate to our conversation here.   As always, rate, review, and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.  Find us on Facebook and Instagram, and send us your questions and comments to idiopodcast@gmail.com.

    Season 3, Episode 2: Valuing Yourself

    In this episode, Destini and T. J. discuss what they are learning about valuing themselves, both in their professions and personal lives.  They talk about the tendency to want to undervalue themselves and how that causes issues with self-worth and creates difficult professional situations to navigate, especially dealing in "helping professions" doing things that they would theoretically do for free, but can't afford to always do that.  This may be a very convicting episode that some of you need to hear.  As always, rate, review, and subscribe wherever you find us, and join the conversation and leave us your comments at idiopodcast@gmail.com.

    In this episode, Destini and T. J. discuss how good mental health and spirituality can co-exist in the Church today and some of the challenges to integrating better mental health awareness and practices in the Church.  They share some of their own negative experiences in how the Church has framed mental health and used things like shame as a mechanism along with ideologies like ”Jesus and nothing else” that create a dynamic that can be stressful and unhelpful.  Join the conversation at idiopod.com.  Submit your comments and questions at idiopodcast@gmail.com.  Rate, review, and subscribe!
