What are you living for? Are you living to be seen? Are you living for man's approval? The trend is to show everyone how perfect our lives are but is that really living? Is that what God wants for our lives? In this podcast we will talk honestly about hardships, pain, success, and how embracing our flaws leads us to achieve our goals. So let's laugh, have fun, get truthful, and embrace that we are Just Imperfect Dreamers. We were all created for a purpose, what's yours?

Welcome dreamers to episode 29! In today's episode, we talk about the importance of making the daily decision to live this life that we are called to live. At times we can still walk in shame, unforgiveness, and even bitterness, but God has called out us out of the past and into the new. His mercies are made new every morning and we have the choice to live in this truth. So it is up to us to choose if we will live life holding onto the things that are not of God.

Many times we walk around trying to ignore our past and what has happened to us because we don't want to go back to that place. However, if we want to walk in purpose and do the things that God has called us to do we have to let go and truly rebuild our spirit.

Are we bringing love into this world or are we bringing hate? One of the first steps we can do is to look at our own issues. We need to educate ourselves and be aware of what is going on but we also need to know how to bring peace and love to those around us even when it's difficult.

How many of us are tired of doing things to seek others validation? I’ll be the first to admit. I post some things or post certain pictures hoping a specific person will see it. Or I’ll say something that I don't 100% believe to make someone else feel comfortable. But wait. That means I’m not living my life truly for God or myself. That means I’m living my life for other people. I’m actually a slave to other’s opinions of who I am. Our goal should not to be to impress others or to be ok in others eyes. Our goal shouldn't be to get the most likes/achieve more clout. Our goal should be to be game changers. To shock the world with the God given gift that He has given us. To show who God is by performing at the level He wants us to perform at. It’s time to enjoy every single moment of life not just the highlights. It’s time to claim our crown. Claim our victory.

However, many times we forget to actually stop and pause to realize that dreams aren’t just built over night. We live in a time where everything is given to us right at that moment to where we’re called the “microwave generation”. We are so impatient and once something doesn’t work out a lot of us can just automatically give up because it’s too hard. In this episode, we talk about addictions and how some of our demons can be the result of our frustrations with chasing the dream. We also talk about J.
