I have been blessed to serve on the launch team of several traditionally published authors, but this is the first time I have been given the opportunity to interview the author.  Jo Saxton, the child of Nigerian immigrants in the UK, has written a timely book that releases today, January 23, 2018. The Dream of You: Let Go of Broken Identities and Live the Life You Were Made For, is available in bookstores nationwide. After hearing this phenomenal woman, you may choose to purchase the audiobook just to hear Jo Saxton’s voice as she narrates.  I know that you will not be disappointed.  

Have you ever been gripped by the fear of failing before you begin a task? If you have ever hesitated to take the next step because of fear and dread, then this episode will encourage you to press forward in the face of fear. Aerialist Karl Wallenda's final high wire walk serves as the inspiration to remain focused on the destination instead of the fears that are sent to distract us from our purpose.

Have you ever wondered if your background work is in vain? While attending a concert featuring the award-winning gospel singer Tamela Mann, I received a revelation about the significance of being patient while in the background.

Moving out of our assigned position may put us in a dangerous position.  Focusing on the gifts of others may cause us to operate outside of the grace that God has given us.  This episode provides the encouragement needed to prevent us from moving too fast.

Displaced emotions can be demonstrated in varying degrees.  They may be masked as coping mechanisms or fear, but do not allow them to rob you of the beautiful future God has in store for you.

Have the disappointments and losses that you have experienced in life made you believe that you can't recover? Take a moment and reconnect to the Source of your supply. There is a blessing in being in sync with Him.
