    Why the Name Joy in Purpose

    In this episode, Dr. Lola explores the meaning behind the name "Joy in Purpose" and how it was divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit. The name wasn’t chosen based on what people might like, but as a calling to reflect the true joy and purpose that comes from following God's plan. Dr. Lola shares the inspiration behind starting the podcast as an encouragement platform from a Christian perspective, alongside the powerful scriptural foundation from Isaiah 61:3. This scripture speaks of God’s promise to bring beauty, joy, and praise in place of mourning and despair, reminding us that our purpose is rooted in His divine calling. Tune in for insight, prayer, and encouragement to find joy in your own purpose. Support this podcast: ⁠⁠⁠https://instagram.com/joyinpurpose_⁠⁠ ⁠Apple podcast link: Joy in Purpose

    Before It’s Too Late: Nurturing What Matters Most

    In this episode, I reflect on life’s most profound moments—birth, weddings, and especially death—and what they teach us about what truly matters. I explore how death reminds us of the brevity of life, challenges us to let go of unforgiveness, and helps us prioritize relationships over achievements. I emphasize the importance of intentionally nurturing human connections, making time for loved ones, and leaving a lasting impact through love, encouragement, and sharing Christ. Ultimately, our legacy lies not in titles or accomplishments but in the memories and relationships we build.
