    Gettin’ Churchy with Judy Murphy

    What an awesome conversation with my Mother-in-Law, Judy. She opens up about her church experience as a little kid all the way up to her adult involvement in church. Has it been an easy road? No. However, the wisdom gained from her experiences and her biblical knowledge help paint a picture of what church could be for all of us. Thanks Judy for opening up to all of us!

    High Fidelity Living

    I’ll be straight with you.
     
    This episode was born out of one question I kept asking myself. Do I believe in hope anymore? Yeah. I like to go back to the drawing board sometimes and look at things with fresh eyes. I think when we hear the same spiritual words over and over and over we lose sight of what they actually mean. Do you feel that way? This episode brought clarity in my continuing journey to have hope and the spot I’m sitting in with life right now. 
     
    Also, this is the last episode of Season 3!!! Yup! It’s true!! But, don’t you worry, Season 4 is right around the corner. 
     
    Hugs and love to you.

    Mental Health and Medication

    Mental Health and Medication

    Have you ever noticed how people don’t really share their mental health medication journey? Why is that? It’s probably because it can be a long, daunting, and strenuous process. Today, I come on to share my journey with depression and how meds slowly entered the picture through the years. 
     
    I also reached out to some friends to share what they wished they learned earlier before starting their own medication process. 
     
    I would find this episode very encouraging for someone who is intimidated, overwhelmed, or confused whether they should try medication or not. As always, please feel free to reach out anytime and please know you don’t have to journey the medication process alone. 
     
    Have a great week!

    The “B” Word

    The “B” Word

    Nope, not that “B” word, sorry. Ha!  Today we are taking about a different word: “Burnout”. Could you have it? Is someone you know saying they don’t feel depressed but don’t feel strong emotions like they used to ? As it turns out, there are valid reasons for this. I have linked another podcast episode which inspired me to talk about my own personal burnout. Much love to you this week!
