    The Pursuit of Meaning - with Dr. Lauren Gilbert

    The Pursuit of Meaning - with Dr. Lauren Gilbert

    Life, liberty, and the pursuit of...meaning? Believe it or not, people who pursue happiness are scientifically LESS happy (and more stressed and less healthy) than people who pursue something else entirely: meaning. But what does pursuing "meaning" actually MEAN? Dr. Lauren Gilbert breaks down the science today on THRIVE. We also talk about living "authentically" - and how showing up with your God-given gifts is just as important and authentic as showing up "relatably" with your shame rooms and junk drawers. Dr. Lauren loves looking at the intersections of science and faith, so today's conversation gives a good look at the both/and of living an authentic, meaningful life!

    Yes, Jesus Cares about your Mental Health - with Laura Smith

    Yes, Jesus Cares about your Mental Health - with Laura Smith

    We’re back with best-selling author, speaker, Bible teacher, and my friend Laura Smith, and we’re chatting all about her newest book: Holy Care for the Whole Self. It’s full of truth and encouragement connecting our mental AND spiritual health journeys, and it’s going to leave you feeling refreshed and breathing easier in your own earthly walk. But if you have not yet grabbed copy, we’ll wait - and give you some really solid advice and steadfast reminders in the meantime, especially great if you’ve ever found yourself struggling mentally and maybe shaming yourself spiritually. You are not broken. There’s nothing wrong with you. You don’t have to “pray away” your pain - it is okay, and right, to seek earthly AND heavenly help. Jesus CARES about your mental health - and Laura is here to break down the “both/and” of seeking healing.

    The one where we break down PPD and PPA. If you’re a mama, this one’s for you. Licensed therapist, author and speaker Rachael Elmore pulls back the curtain on real mom life in such a beautiful, vulnerable way that’ll have you thinking “AH, so I’m not crazy…and I’m not alone.” In this episode, we talk all about mental health in motherhood, and we also break down phrases like “you only have 18 summers with your kids.” This conversation will feel like one big mom hug to YOU…and we know moms give the best hugs, right?

    How to Live by Design, Not Default - with Julie Ciardi

    How to Live by Design, Not Default - with Julie Ciardi

    Today’s episode is for all the girlies who have ever felt trapped in a life lived on “default.” It’s an awesome conversation with my fabulous friend Julie, who on the outside, very much looks like she “does it all.” She’s got a 7-figure business, a top 1.5% globally ranked podcast, over 20 years of marketing and sales experience, had a brick and mortar boutique, and more…including a husband and 3 kids. But really, Julie’s life has been filled with very intentional choices and specific moves to let her live by her own design - and very much NOT by default. In this episode, she shares how she managed to rise the corporate ranks at IBM - all the way to VP of Marketing - while still saying “no” and coaching her son’s soccer team. She spills the secret to building your self-image and self-confidence to make bold moves in your own life, and she breaks down her formula for being a “Mom AND.” Whether you’re a corporate chica, an ambitious entrepreneur, and/or a fellow mama, this episode is not one to miss!

    Feeling Stuck? The Good News is... - with Hope Reagan Harris

    Feeling Stuck? The Good News is... - with Hope Reagan Harris

    If you’re in a season where you just feel STUCK - we’ve got good news for you today. Your purpose doesn’t pause! Even when it feels like nothing is happening, God is working - and your story isn’t done. Author Hope Reagan Harris is on THRIVE today sharing her own story of finding and living her purpose through multiple career and family moves, even in those moments of thinking “What are you up to, God?” You’ll finish this episode feeling more confident discerning if it’s a God-shut door or a devil-laid obstacle, and less forgotten through the harder moments when you may feel stuck in the mud. If you just can’t figure out why the HECK you are where you are now…take a breath. There may be reason to your season, and Hope is here to help you figure it out (or at least, find peace in the process).
