    The Secret to Better Relationships Isn’t Big

    Sometimes it’s not the big moments that shape our relationships most . . . it’s the little patterns we fall into without even realizing it. In this episode, we focus on the small shifts that can quietly change a relationship over time: the assumptions we make, the way busyness pulls us apart, and why people can genuinely care about each other and still miss what the other person actually needs. It’s an honest, real-life conversation about connection, communication, grace, and learning to love people a little better in the middle of everyday life. We lean into the importance of staying tuned in to God — because sometimes His quiet nudges are what lead us toward more patience, more understanding, and a softer response than the one we were about to give. There’s humor, perspective, a few “ouch, that’s true” moments, and plenty of encouragement for anyone who wants healthier, deeper, more connected relationships without feeling like you need a complete life overhaul.

    The Truth About Midlife (That No One Told You)

    What is it about midlife that makes you question things you never used to think twice about: your purpose, your energy, your priorities?  There are the challenges: changing energy, menopause, body shifts, changing roles, and even moments where you barely recognize yourself. BUT there’s also something unexpectedly meaningful happening beneath the surface. In this conversation, we talk about rediscovering parts of yourself that may have gotten buried under years of responsibility, learning to let go of other people’s expectations, and recognizing that God may still be leading you into new things. Honest, practical, encouraging, and deeply relatable, this episode speaks to anyone navigating this season of life. From fatigue and identity shifts to confidence, peace, and rediscovering joy, Lanee and Sandy explore what it looks like to move through midlife with openness instead of fear—while sharing plenty of helpful tips and insight along the way. If you’ve ever wondered whether this season could hold more than just clichés and survival mode, this episode is for you. Press play, join the conversation, and maybe even begin to see midlife in a completely new light. ___ Links:  101.3 The Light (Sandy's on Mornings Eastern Time) Watch the movie that Lanee Co-Produced "Rekindled For Christmas" on  Amazon Prime Send us Fan Mail For more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF,  visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.

    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 us Fan Mail For more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF,  visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.

    The Thoughts That Are Quietly Running Your Life

    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, we encourage a slower, more intentional check-in that centers our thoughts, our hearts, and our faith. Think about what you're thinking about! 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 us Fan Mail 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 us Fan Mail For more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF,  visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.
