Living Beyond The Pain

Hey overcomer! I know that life has a way of turning things upside down. When it seems like you have everything under control and then something happens that changes your life. Whether it's something good or not, do you ever find yourself having to readjust? Have you ever found yourself growing tired or weary because you put so much effort into taking care of yourself and then it seems like it's not enough? I know that I have. I would love it if you would join me on today's episode as I share with you how a little misstep changed my life and caused some setbacks. I will not only share my story with you, but I also wanted to show you some love by giving some words of encouragement.

Hey Overcomers! I don't know about you but if you're like me, as soon as you begin to feel the weight being lifted you might find yourself wondering what's next or now what am I supposed to do? Especially when those doctor appointments and/or physical therapy visits have ended. Then you end up having to find a way to maintain your health on your own. Well, what if there was someone out there that could help you figure out just what to do, while you're stuck in limbo? Have you ever thought about talking to a Health Coach before? If not, I would love it if you would join me and our special guest health coach, Nicole Reynolds from Optimal Daily Living. We will discuss the type of health coaching she does, the top areas she likes to focus on, and how health coaching can benefit you in your everyday life.

Hey overcomer! When you think about crying, do you see it as being a weakness? Have you ever found yourself hiding your emotions because you felt that way? I know that I am so guilty of doing just that. After being diagnosed with Endometriosis and IC then, hearing all that comes along with my conditions. I tried my hardest not to show any signs of emotions especially when I was in the denial phase. Have you ever done that? I would love it if you would join me for today's episode as I talk about my perspective on shedding those tears and how by doing so it may be the release you need for your healing to begin. I will also discuss how there is power in letting go and letting God. 1 Peter 5:7 Cast "ALL" your cares upon the Lord; for he careth for you.

Hey Overcomer! Mood swings how many of us have them? If you are anything like me they seem to come and go as it pleases. I know it is something that I have personally struggled with over the years. Living with any chronic condition can be overwhelming and can take its toll not only on your body but your mood also. The thing is if you do not find a positive way to handle it all, it can cause your emotions to spiral out of control. As you may know, I believe that having good mental health is so important to our well-being and our healing. I would love it if you would join me on today's episode as I talk about fighting mood swings, how it has affected me, and share with you some things that I have found helpful to get me through those intense moments.

Hey Overcomer! Do you find it hard sometimes to just get out of the bed in the morning but, somehow you manage to pull yourself together, get up, and start your day? Have you ever looked at your life or your situation and wondered, what am I suppose to be doing with my life now? If you are like me from the first moment you received a diagnosis (Endometriosis & Interstitial Cystitis) your life changed. Then all of a sudden all of the plans that you made, slowly start to change as well. I would love it if you would join me for today's episode, as I share with you how my recent health scare caused me to reflect on my life from a different perspective. I will also share with you my thoughts on how it is possible to discover purpose while chasing peace. "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit" Roman 15:13 K.

Hey overcomers! Have you ever had someone very close to you suddenly become ill and all you want to do is help? You stop worrying about yourself when life sometimes throws some unexpected curveballs, that have you going through so many different emotions all at one time. Even though you know that stressing only makes the pain worse, you find yourself doing it anyway. It may even seem like everything is crumbling around you and you do not know where to turn. I know I've felt that way myself especially after my love ones took ill all around the same time. If you have, I just want to encourage you that you will get through it because you are so much stronger than you even realize. In today's episode, I will discuss with you how life's unexpected health challenges not only put my faith to the test but my family's as well.

The uncertainty of it all and watching the news change everyday can cause fear, anxiety, and stress which are all things that can trigger more pain. It can trigger a flare up if you're dealing with medical conditions like Interstitial Cystitis, Chronic pain, and Endometriosis.

Can you remember a time when someone in your life stepped in and helped you when you needed it the most? So often we get so caught up with the pain due to our medical conditions(i.e. Endometriosis and IC), that we can sometimes fail to notice when support is being given. We pray that God will not only heal us but we also ask for God's help. I know from experience that when you are going through something half of the time you don't want to even be bothered. You start get short with people when they try to help you because you don't want to give up you independence only to have the pain intensify later. I know that the last thing that you want to do is push your loved ones away. I know that I don't. Lets not take them for granted and try to show more appreciation. Remember that when people love you they hurt when you hurt. That's why I want to encourage you to learn how to be more open to letting the positive people that are the closest to you in, especially when all they want to do is be there for you. I was reminded of a story I heard about a man stuck in the snow praying to God for help. God answered his prayers by sending help (a sled/sledders) three different times but he refused to get on it. He would say that he was waiting on God to show up each time. After he didn't survive, he made it to heaven and asked God why did he let this happen and not answer his prayers? Then God asked him "Did you not see the sleds that I sent you?" Please don't ignore the sleds (people) in your life that God sent to help you. Even if it is for a season! Join me for part two of Circle of support as I continue to share my stories with you.

Happy Holiday's Overcomers! How often do we really ask ourselves about how our families and loved ones may be feeling about our mood swings, outbursts, and our behavior when we're dealing with Endometriosis, Interstitial cystitis, or chronic pain? I believe that it's a good idea to see things from a different perspective sometimes. Our struggles not only affect us, but it also affects our families too! When someone really loves you they hurt when you hurt. So often we get so caught up in our own emotions and struggles with our conditions and pain, that we forget they have feelings too. Then we can hurt them even more by withdrawing or pushing our family away. I believe that it's time to change all of that and restore our families! Join me in today's episode where I will be switching it up a little bit by inviting a special guest one of my close family members to the show!
