The SundayMonday Show Jane Kennedy

What's the best way to live our faith in the world? How do we bring our authentic selves to work, when it feels vulnerable to do?



In this episode, Kara shares her experience working as a broadcast journalist and sharing stories for a living. We discuss the importance of using our gifts to serve society and the kingdom, living our faith when it feels challenging to do so in a professional environment, and how to balance faith and work. Kara is an absolute hoot and this conversation is filled with gems! I hope it leaves you inspired to go out and live boldly, following in Kara's example!

Today I am honored to have one of my oldest and dearest friends: superstar engineer and Carondelet High School Class of 2013 Salutatorian, Laura Bobich, on the podcast!



Laura shares her journey from her first job at a toys and games store to her current role as a structural engineer. She talks about what drew her to engineering and what her experience is like now as a woman in the male-dominated field. Laura also shares what she learned from her first job, and how that tough experience led her to a role that's far more fulfilling but different than what she originally thought she'd enjoy out of school.



It's an episode FULL of wisdom and I'm so excited for you to enjoy Laura's joy, wit, and wisdom!

The SundayMonday is ONE!!! I cannot believe it’s been a year since these doors were opened and this community began. It’s been the coolest, most eye-opening, most fun year, and it’s all because of you! Thank you for being here, thank you for bringing your joy and light and experiences – The SundayMonday is a gift, because you all are gifts!

In today’s episode, I share five reflections on the past year. I talk about facing fear of failure, being obedient to the Holy Spirit when it’s hard, releasing control, working with friends, comparison, and more! It was wild to reflect on the past year (especially since it was such a roller coaster) but I’m grateful to get to do all of this in such a great community.

If you’d like to hear the origin story of The SundayMonday, head back to episode one and give it a listen!

This episode is inspired by a question sent in by a friend - "Should I take this offer, or wait for a more perfect job?"

This is such a common issue and so I'm taking to the podcast to dive in. There's one question that we need to ask before taking a job, and unfortunately so many of us forget it in the rush of excitement over our offers! When you ask this question, you're setting yourself up for a career with vision, purpose, and joy. 

Have a question or topic you'd like addressed? Email me at janekennedy@thesundaymonday.co and your question could be featured on the show!

Today I'm joined again by my friend, Erica Carnohan, as we discuss some of our favorite topics: body image, intuitive eating, and self care!

In this episode, Erica and I share our personal journeys and  struggles with our bodies, food, and exercise. We talk about the culture that we live in and how health and wellness has become distorted from the truth of how God created us: unique, beautiful, and strong. After long struggles to embrace this truth, we both came to Intuitive Eating over the past few years, and have found unbelievable freedom, healing, and peace in the process. If you're struggling with your body, food, and/or exercise, we hope that our stories might offer hope that there is freedom on the other side, and that wants so much more for you!

This episode is part two of our episode answering questions sent in by graduating seniors! I’m joined by Lauren Niesen and Caroline Rose Owens to jump into even more awesome topics. In this part, we discuss all sorts of questions including:


Time management
Negotiating your salary
Budgeting
Building a life outside of work
Finding hobbies and activities outside of work
Tithing
How can you show that you’re committed to work but it’s not your whole life?
How do you budget your salary?
What about life outside of work? What do you do at night, on weekends or after work? How do you not fall into the trap of watching Netflix falling asleep every night? And what about hobbies?? Do you have them, how do you do that?
Is there anything else you’d like to share as we wrap up?

Lauren and Caroline and I had such great time answering these and hope this information is helpful for you.
