Send us a textI have more friends that I have ever had in my life. I believe that I have learned how to become a friend and that is what is making my friendships  full of love and respect. Recently, I supported my friends as they found the courage to make changes in their life. These changes are life changes that affect their sphere of influence. I have learned that my resilience or wisdom has taught me to never judge others and know that my intent to understand - is just that intent. The best thing I can do is respect their position. In this week's episode, let's talk about it. I would love to hear your thoughts… reach out to me at Terrilyn@TerrilynMinnifield.comThanks for listening.

Send us a textI am excited to share my failure with you! This may sound funny - but I am falling in love with the opportunity to fail so that I can achieve success! This episode is about the process I learned as I continue to work on my YouTube channel. The process has taken me out a few times. I have NO idea what I am doing and I don't know the particulars that will make it a consistent part of my platform. This episode is a reminder of how I don't have to fail with God. I have been intentional to include God in my process instead of relying on what I think, do and the experience that I thought that I had. Take a listen and let me know what you think.

Send us a textWelcome back to another episode talking about resilience. Today we are going to be talking about being on the Receiving Side. As a believer, we believe in a God that was so giving that He gave us His son so that we could have a life more abundant. We are able to receive all that Jesus did for us when He died and rose again to reconcile us to the original plan for our lives. We need to stay on the receiving side in the midst of the executive orders, presidential election and all the calamity that continues to circle us in these times. Listen in to get my understanding of our position of victory and the receiving side that continues with joy, peace, understanding and all the benefits of being a believer.  Thanks for listening.

Send us a textHappy New Year!I am excited for 2025! I hope that you are as well. I am tired of hearing about New Tear's Resolutions. It is time that we think of the reason why we do what we do.

Let's celebrate together and grow from faith to faith with the right intentions. Please check out my website, www.TerrilynMinnifield.com, and reach out at Terrilyn@TerrilynMinnifield.com.

Send us a textMerry Christmas!I have to admit that the holiday season has been a little rough for me this year. My dad transitioned to Heaven 4 months ago, and my brother left 4 years ago. It is hard to put into words how I feel this season. I have learned that grief does not wait for you to get it together. Grief uses any opportunity available to remind you what you are missing at all family gatherings. I had a family event recently that allowed me to visit my nephew. He shared the best inspiration of all. He shared a letter—his dad, my brother had written to him before he was born. This letter was amazing. There was no mystery with what my brother thought, felt, or believed for his son. I was inspired to keep journals for my kids. Listen in to the details, and I hope they make a difference for you. Please check out my website, www.TerrilynMinnifield.com, and reach out at Terrilyn@TerrilynMinnifield.com.

Send us a textWhat does Victory look like to you? As believers, we believe that Jesus died for us to have life more abundantly. Are you living an abundant life? I have been researching and looking at how I approach the goals in my life and I found that my emotions will tell the story of what I believe. I think we should examine what we are doing for ourselves, for those we love and for those that we influence. Let's be the example of knowing what victory means to us. Please check out my website... www.TerrilynMinnifield.com and reach out at Terrilyn@TerrilynMinnifield.com.

Send us a textWell, the election is over. The time to talk about hope is now. Either you are excited about your candidate winning or you are in anguish over the results. We all have to begin again.

Send us a textAre you insecure? Have you been told that you are insecure and that you don't have what it takes to get things done? I have been working hard to overcome the idea of being insecure as I work on the "next level". I mentioned in the last episode that it was time to reach a new level in the podcast and all that I will be doing for God. As I researched and began to work on next steps, I have been having a hard time with videotaping and my image. I did some work on my past and found many instances where my confidence was compromised by unwanted attention to my speech, my looks, and my intelligence. I have not been comfortable with that attention. It has been a great discovery and I will continue to work on those things that are hindrances to my next level. Do you have any details that you are discovering about yourself that hinder your next steps in your career? your relationships? your lifestyle? Give a listen and take some notes.

Send us a textBoundaries are necessary. Setting up personal boundaries in all areas of your life is essential. This includes physical, emotional, and mental boundaries that help you stay balanced in your well-being. In this episode, I share many challenges that I have been thrust into and how I am using time and space to create boundaries. The best suggestion that I can give you is to create the time and space needed to do what you need to do. Boundaries are not negative - but necessary to change your perspective on your emotions that control how you think and feel. Often we forget that the sphere of our influence will affect those that we love. How we deal with situations and the story that we create makes a difference. Listen in and share with me some of your thoughts. Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Share with others and write us a review.

Josiah and I took on the topic of when your dreams are falling into place. Many times, we do not acknowledge the moments that make us realize our success. We need to remember who we are and that we were created for a purpose. In this short conversation, we talk about Josiah's recent success in accomplishing his goals and how it lines up with his purpose. It is important to have direction in all that you do. We believe in having a relationship with the one who created you. Walk out the details of your identity and continue to keep your focus on all the blessings you have. Take a listen and see if you can add talking points that will give direction to those that listen. Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

Welcome back to another episode where we tap into your relationship with God and how God wants to use you. Tatiana, my daughter, is here with me. She is 24 years old and loves to study the Word of God. We talk about the strategy to continue connecting with God and how it is important to stay focused on what God has told you while thinking, feeling, or acting on what you should do. We must keep a simple plan in mind to grow our relationship with our creator. 1. Spend Time with God2. Practice the Presence of God3. Read the Bible - whatever version that helps you understand4. Learn to trust what God has said and build your confidence in who God isIt isn't easy to rely on God's promises, is it? I would love to hear from you. Thanks for listening.

This week is a special treat for me. My children, Josiah and Tatiana were able to share their heart and insight of how to overcome disconnecting with God. The best part of listening to this episode is that I get the gift of hearing all that they believe and what they have been taught. My children teach me. Listen in with a parent's heart and as a believer that is looking for practical tips to stay connected to God. This is Gen Z. As we hear the worlds' influence on our generations - know that this is a reminder that they are good ground and they “get it”.  They answered 3 questions: What do you do when you feel like you are out of sync with God?Why is our response to disappointment or dissatisfaction typically doubt?How do you stay encouraged when you are waiting on God?Keep Believing and Listening.. Your Story Matters Until next time, 

This is a personal episode. I have been dealing with a lot of challenges with those that I love. Those that are in different seasons of life that do not have the control that they once had over illness, disease or the medical reports. As a child, I had situations that allowed me to make a healthy decision to become the support for those that were dealing with situations that they could not control. This decision became one of the most important decisions of my life. I made a decision to support my mom as my mom. The diagnosis given by a doctor explain the symptoms of the illness; not the character of the caretaker. Listen in to hear my thoughts and form your own opinions that create the reality that will make all the difference for you. Thanks for listening.

I love learning. I fell in love with adventures, events and school many years ago. I have always thought that I was better after expanding the knowledge that I have. In this episode, I talk about the details that make you a good student and how good students make the best teachers. Some of the main characteristics of a good student is to have an open mind, humble oneself and to challenge yourself to learn more and be more. Take a listen and hear what makes you a great teacher. Are you a good student?  Let me hear from you.Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Share with others and write us a review.

We made it!!! 100 Episodes!  Our episode today is about Being Faithful in the Little. My faith teaches me that when I am faithful in the little, God will make me ruler over much. We all have goals. Goals are the big thing, as I am faithful in the little things or steps to get to the big things. We have to develop discipline to take care of what we need to do to qualify for more. Discipline opens the door for obedience. Obedience unlocks the blessings that are available for you. We make decisions everyday to go to or away from our goals. People get so caught up in the speed of life that they don't take the time to evaluate their own steps to faithfulness. Listen in with a heart to hear and a desire to have more. Thanks for listening.

Some of the best conversations start with the wisdom that is shared from experience. I love my encounters with Reggie Hawes! Reggie is a intellect who has heard the voice of God for all of his life. At 29, he made a commitment to Jesus and his life became a series of conversations that give an overview to the wisdom available for those that he speaks with. We have known the Hawes Family for over 25 years. They are friends that have become family. In this episode, Reggie details his life experiences that make him who he is today. Reggie continues to guide those that will listen. The insight shared allows one to become more objective and realize the decisions draw them closer or away from their purpose. Listen in and laugh with us as he talks about the details that make a difference. Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

It isn't often when you meet someone that inspires you to do more than you already do. Channing is that person for me. Channing is a 23 year old, professional soccer player that talks about his life, his plan and his victories - one after another. I met Channing at a Black History Month Expo in Phoenix and we connected on his story and on the passion of his book, The 1% Kid. A native of Cleveland, Channing relocated to Arizona at 11 years old. His determination and perseverance resulted in his dream to attend Ohio State University and play college soccer. Channing overcame injuries and setbacks to become a player with the Phoenix Rising Soccer Club. Channing philosophy is 1% better everyday. Channing lives by Practice, Perserverance and Patience. His parents encouragement and example have set the foundation for Channing to remain focused on his goals. He has taken his love of soccer and encouragement to teach young kids to believe in themselves and their dreams. His goals include to build a foundation for club soccer and scholarships for those kids who play well and need an opportunity to show they are 1% better. Listen in to his episode. There are take aways for everyone in every area. We celebrate Channing and will work to become 1% better! Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

I had so many words to describe  Shaun Mayo - infamous, intelligent, focused, and a hard worker—but the label that carried our conversation was Dedicated. Shaun is dedicated to his commitment to himself and his family. Shaun is the first Chief People Officer for the Arizona Cardinals football team. Our conversation is an overview of Shaun's climb to his current position and all the resilience he developed as he depended on his faith and the drive to look beyond where he was in any career move he made. Shaun is a strategist who has the heart of an entrepreneur. His current position is just the beginning, and his drive to create leaders is inspiring. In this conversation, we talk about perspective, leadership, and the decision to succeed. The power of your perspective can lead you to the success you work for! Many people think that Human Resources is such a "scary" place. Shaun finds it a place to include those who have identified their passion and are striving to develop their purpose. This was a fun conversation! Thanks, Shaun. I'm grateful to have you in the studio... and let's not forget, GO CARDS! Thanks for listening.

This episode was personal. I answered a question that I often receive from those who are watching, wondering, or trying to understand what being a pastor means. I would love for you to take a listen and learn my perspective. The pastor position is one of the hardest and most fulfilling positions I have held. I have continued to change—I mean, grow in my relationship with God and share with others so that they can capture a deeper spiritual relationship. All of my perceptions don't have to become yours. I believe there is insight available as you listen and understand that I am one person who serves God with her whole heart. I am not perfect, but I am a reflection of my private life in a public forum. Listen in and let me know what you think. Keep the questions coming. I believe that we are better together, and the story I share will add to the story you are creating. Until next time. TerrilynWordlife.church

I love conversations that become more about where you are than what you talk about. My time spent with Dani Dysinger was just that—more. Dani shared the details of her work experience in retail, her heart for leading others, and her recent work exploring the depths of who she is. Dani began working at 15 years old, and after a few roles in a leadership position, she fell in love with all aspects of retail, from the big box to the luxury boutique. Dani has gained so many tools that allow her to establish a successful career in retail and a leader in her industry. Dani loves the influence and inspiration that she has developed while representing many well-known brands for thousands of people who follow her Instagram. Dani has now evolved beyond the merchandising to advocate for others who seek to establish value in their routine and reach for goals outside of the daily dynamics. Dani's brand will be one that relates to others who are in search of more and will guide them to the goals they haven't spent time nurturing. Listen in and reframe what you think about merchandising and material possessions. Dani is a single mom who is using her creativity to create the world that she is called to have. We are here to cheer you on, Dani! Shout out to your resilience and the lessons learned from your story.Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

Happy 1st Anniversary to Josiah & Amy! This heartfelt discussion was a small conversation after the big life-changing decisions that were made to get married. Listeners are familiar with Josiah and Amy and their previous appearances on the podcast. Josiah debuted in March 2022 in Episode 17, A Minni Tale, and Amy's episode was in Episode 52, The Promise is My Plan. I was honored to have them together in the same episode. This episode is an example of the miracle that took place in their hearts as they joined in marriage. A lot of prayer, talk, marriage counseling, and decision-making have gone into the steps that have created a beautiful life together. Their story is a reminder of the second and third changes we get to make success out of the messes we create and the assurance that everything will work out for our good. Give a listen and celebrate with this wonderful couple that has kept their faith at the center of their relationship. The exchange that they made for their emotions and wants has been replaced with a purpose and a plan to find the good right where they are. It matters what you believe. I am grateful that these two believe in the plan that has made their lives an example of winning. Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

I had an amazing time chatting with our family friend, Monique Hardy. I have known Monique since she was a youngster. It is amazing how the skills, gifts, and talents that we possess will develop as we grow. Monique is quite the woman. She is a mother and wife, and she has always been an artist. Our conversation details her journey to express her heart. Monique has always expressed her love for God; now she has a business that expresses the Word of God. After studying Dr. Masaru Emoto's water study, Monique understood the power of words and the effect that words can have as we wear them, attach our thinking to them, and advertise them. It was an amazing revelation to let the Word of God speak the faith, desire, and will of God for our lives. Monique has done just that with the creation of her design company, Victory Us LLC. We talk about the development of her purpose, the goals of her company, and the attention to detail that makes all things possible. Listen in as you discover how Monique continues to develop her purpose, one shirt at a timeThis show is about you - the listener, and how you perceive the experiences you have. I am excited for you to get involved and share your story. I am excited to hear your visions, and your resilience stories... Write to me and allow me to share your victories! Thanks for listening.

I enjoyed spending some quality time with two fantastic ladies who are living their best life as they look to transition from single to being in a relationship. Often we look to be coupled with someone who meets all of our wants. These ladies are looking to be coupled with the man that meets their needs. Having a relationship with Jesus is the relationship that they are building on as they prepare to be the wife of a man of intergrity, faith and kindness. Samantha represents the women who are in their 30s Era. Sam is full of the expectations of love and excited about the relationship that will compliment the goals in her heart. Wendy represents the women who are in their 50s Era. Wendy is full of life experience with the promise of knowing what she wants and building on the wisdom that she has gathered in the affairs of her heart. Although each perspective is different, there are so many commonalities that these ladies share.  Give a listen to relate. Give a listen to find inspiration and hope of the possibilities of sharing your life with someone that was created specifically for you. Give a listen and locate what Era you are in and the true meaning of the connection that is beyond words. Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

I have so many words to describe the time spent with Maurice & Rachel Wright. They are a couple that are good examples of the legacy that should be talked about in families.

The Wrights are retired from positions and walking in a new season of plans, ministry and connections that compliment their work ethic and determination to expand their legacy. Communication,explaining the value of family history and the reward of working hard to play hard are many of our talking points. Character is everything and the Wrights keep the best perspective.

I have the awesome opportunity to sit down and talk with Vanessa Kelly, the founder of Function Pilates. I met Vanessa over 5 years ago when I attended a class purchased on Groupon. I fell in love with Pilates and fell in love with all aspects of her studio. Vanessa has customized every aspect of her Pilates empire and developed a well-rounded approach to wellness and health. Our conversation is not just about Pilates; it is about the hard worker that Vanessa has always been and the relentless focus she has to recreate and design her workspace as a place of growth. Vanessa is a single mom of two little girls. Her daughters are watching their mom develop as a leader and businesswoman every day. In the episode, we talk about her passion for doing business her way and the wisdom to apply what she continues to learn as her business model grows. In the past five years,  Vanessa has developed Certified Teacher Training, a successful YouTube channel, and expanded her studios in Arizona. We all love a winning story.  Vanessa gives us one to cheer for!  Listen in to insights that can help you develop your next step. See you at the next class!Thanks for listening.

Focused, smart, funny, and wise are just a few words to describe Tatiana and Alex. Our girls have been friends since high school. In this episode, they share insight into their high school career and the lessons they learned to stay smart girls. Both girls had the privilege to attend private Christian education, which developed their character and faith. The decision to develop "who they are" was part of their journey. Both girls admit and admire the foundation that they were given in school and believe that it made all the difference to have home values that resemble those that they were taught in school. Now college and graduate students, the girls continue to move through this life with thoughtfulness and a friendship that they both can depend on. This was a fun episode to circle back to the perspective that we parents hope is being instilled in the leaders of tomorrow—our girls! Have a listen and share this episode with those who need the encouragement that being smart is always a good thing!Thanks for listening.

Happy New Year!2024 is here, and I couldn't think of anyone more qualified to start our year off than another conversation with Connie Waters. Connie shared her knowledge and wisdom about nutrition, the Word of God, and the power of living our best lives.  We were introduced to Connie in Episode 81: Healing from the Inside Out. We continue the conversation about our health and how our beliefs align us with the nutrition, healing, and wisdom given to us. Start the new year with a better perspective on how to use food, and change our perspective to connect with our measure of faith in nutrition and health so that we move toward better decisions to increase our level of health. We discussed the Daniel Fast—the time spent away from food and concentrating on time with God. This time of dedication separated us and renewed our perspective on our relationship with God. The details are so old that they are new details that we should consider. Connie will be coming back. We would love to keep the discussion going. Send me your questions; let's get some answers! Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Please share with others and write us a review.

As we close out 2023, it is time for me to take a look at what I am doing and what I want to do differently next year. I looked at my time spent using social media. Social media is an amazing medium that allows us to connect innovation and technology in a social environment.  There are aspects of social media that allow us to connect and dream bigger dreams, and there are aspects that connect us to false representations and narratives. In this episode, I talk about what I will be doing next year to evaluate my use of social media and the things that I love. Our perspective is our reality. Share this episode with someone who should evaluate what they are doing. We only have one life; let's live it with purpose. Thanks for listening.

I am happy to spend studio time with Pastor Phreddie & George Khalil to talk about the faith that it takes. We have launched an initiative to activate John 14:12 in our church, Word Life Church, and invite others to express their faith and share with others. We are going out to grocery stores and asking people if we can pray for them. Our "Go Team" is a group of believers who are taking our faith to the streets. The simple question" to pray for a person's hurts, ailments, or challenges" ignites the conversation to share our faith and the faith available to them to grow in love and trust in the things of God. They are available to experience the real-time effects of prayer. Jesus loves you.  I have participated in the outings, and it was amazing that my faith increased as I believed with others. It was an amazing experience to gain faith in the midst of sharing with others the possibilities available to them. Every believer can care about others and invest time and prayer to help others. Healing is for today. Faith is available today. Take a listen to hear the excitement and power of our testimonies. Take notes and bring this approach to those around you. Feel free to reach out to us so that we can help you start a "Go Team" or share your experience to let us know we are not alone.For more information:Word Life Church: https://wordlife.churchEmail: info@wordlife.churchPhone: 602-592-7759Instagram: Wordlife.churchThanks for listening.

I loved my conversation with Connie Waters - an advocate and catalyst for health and healing. Connie is a dynamic woman who has been in service to others for more than 40 years. This conversation is brilliant! Connie had a lot of medical conditions and has journeyed through this life with many illnesses and diagnoses. The truth is that she can love herself the way that God intended. She has learned to love herself and teach others how to gain and live out their love with the quality of their health.  Connie said so many things! You may have to listen again to hear the details that matter to you. Faith is the common denominator that allowed her to apply the Word of God to her health and love the ability of the body to heal itself as we become accountable for how we live. We have been given everything we need to live a healthy life. Drink water, eat foods as God made them to get the best value, rest, and eliminate foods....these key principles are life-sustaining. This episode is critical for understanding. Please share this episode. You can add days to someone's life.Connie Waters602-769-5955aztotalhealth.comArizona Natural Health ServicesThanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

I had a great conversation with my friend Linda Khalil. Linda is a homeschool mom by choice and is committed to God and his instruction to take on teaching her children from home. Linda studied for many years to become a nurse and loved her career. After balancing work and caring for her children, Linda felt the calling to come home and teach her children at home. Homeschooling is the constant development of relationships and studying curriculum while living life with your children.  This conversation is a priority as you examine the idea of homeschooling and the opportunity to intentionally influence a change in the traditional model of education. Linda expresses her reasons for homeschooling and understands that we are teaching our children in everything we do. Listen in to remind yourself of your intentions with your family. Homeschooling is an opportunity to give your children a well-rounded education that includes your faith and their spiritual development. This episode may be for someone you know or for those who are struggling with what they feel they should do. Homeschooling is as amazing as you believe it could be.Thanks for listening.

I am currently on the grind. With the grind of work, family, church, school, and work again I have many jobs, titles, and goals. Most of all, I have dreams and goals that keep me motivated to continue. We have to stay motivated to continue in order to achieve success in those things that fulfill our purpose. In this episode, I talk about what happens when you are not able to compromise what you do and settle for the ordinary. You decide what defines you, what drives you and what grows you. Keep choosing to stay motivated. We become an example for others as they look to find their way to their purpose. Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

I had the amazing opportunity to meet with Doreah (Dor-ray-uh) Dean. Doreah is a delightful, energetic brand strategist who continues to empower clients and friends to define their dreams and identify their purpose in all that they do. We had a dynamic conversation about faith, purpose, and hearing God. Doreah is thoughtful, meticulous, and full of analytical skills that have inspired me to reach beyond what I have and connect with what is available to me. Often, we meet people whose depth is far beyond our experience. Doreah is that person. She has navigated "Hollywood" and stepped out to do "Kingdom" business. Doreah is an excellent example of a person who continues to thrive by listening to what God would have her do and following His path. God empowers her to have the BEST strategic plan just for her.  We talked about so much! Give this episode a listen. Take some time to define your brand and understand that you just need to identify where you are so that you can talk about where you want to go.Thanks for listening.

Sometimes we feel disconnected. Our disconnection can be a result of frustration, exhaustion, and discontentment. We need to learn the lesson that we are taught when receiving airline instructions from the flight attendants. We need to put the oxygen mask on ourselves before we can put it on others. We need to take care of ourselves. We need to keep our focus to stay attached to our dreams. We can never stop believing. This episode is one that you can share with others. A great reminder of the simple process that keeps us connected to our energy and plans that make a difference in our lives. Make it normal to stay connected to your dreams and visions.Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Please share with others and write us a review.

 We have to remember that FIRST WORDS MATTER. In most situations, if not all. What we begin saying about a situation is what we believe. There have been many situations that I have dealt with that were serious. I have dealt with doctor's reports on my health, issues in my relationships, and circumstances in my workplace. In all these situations, I came to learn that what I said about the situation became what I believed. In this episode, I cover reminders that give you a guide to take the time that you need to review situations and get your perspective and position time to develop what you want to happen. Thanks for listening.

We've all been there. We have been lenders to friends or family that were in need of money. In this episode, we talk about key guidelines that help you understand what you are doing, when you will be paid back, and why the money that you lend should be money that you may never see again. Money is often the foundation of hurt, misunderstandings, and foolishness in many relationships. We can build trust in relationships when dealing with money, because we know that the relationship is more important than the money. We have to learn how to forgive others who do not repay loans or take advantage of the money given to them. Forgiveness is always more important for us than it is for others. We have to forgive ourselves first. Never let unforgiveness live in your heart. Our lives are so full of light that we cannot allow this darkness in. Thanks for listening.

Today we will talk about disappointment. Disappointment is real. We can be disappointed in people, places, and things. We can not allow disappointment to find its place in our hearts and distract us from the vision that God has given us. As Christians, we believe that God created us in His image and has a plan and purpose for our lives. We talk about the story of Elijah and how he was in God's perfect will but encountered disappointment as he followed God's instructions. Are you disappointed with how things turned out in an area of your life? You are not alone. Listen in and find three key things to remember so that disappointment doesn't create bitterness but does create resilience.Thanks for listening.

Great conversation with my educated friend, Tricia Beck. Tricia is a teacher with more than 30 years of experience. She is a natural teacher who brings so much good energy to the conversation about learning. Her passion for helping others developed from her conversations with her mentor, Paul. Paul asked about her future and ignited a desire for Tricia to accomplish all that was in her heart. Tricia has written novels that speak to the process of mentoring and coaching. All of our relationships develop our character. What are you working on? Tricia talked about her desire to empower women and the connection that will grow you on the path to a grateful and blessed life. This is a great book, a foundation for helping you identify where you are, and stories that give you support as you develop your story. Listen in. You can never be too educated to learn about yourselfThanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Please share with others and write us a review.

I have had this topic on my mind for so many years. My husband and his amazing genes are all around me. All of my children look like him. I have dealt with this for so many years. In my frustration, I prayed to God to let me know why He allowed my kids to look like him. He answered me and told me they looked like both of us. Every internal organ looks just like me! So they are combination children. The outside looks like their Dad and I have their organs covered. There is a bigger conversation that is available. What do you look like? Not just in appearances, but in values, kindness, and mannerisms? It is a great question. Who are you following? What do people see when they notice what you bring into the world? Take a look, take a listen—this is food for thought. Keep thinking! Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral.

Ebony is an original template that holds and operates in the beauty of Self Love. Wisdom is her key and she loves people! Ebony is a fashionista and a contact creator who is inspiring women over 40.

Great conversation with Derrick & Kendra Byrd. Such an amazing couple! I love talking to them about their love story, the individual growth they had when they broke up - for 2 years, and the reconciliation that created the union that they have now. These LoveByrds have a counselor's heart with the purpose to coach couples. The thread in all that they do is Faith and the purpose of all they will create is founded in Love. Derrick's instruction to you... "Keep Hope and Trust God - even when things don't look like they are going well". Kendra's instruction..."Be Intentional in all you do and keep dreaming! You can hold out for your fairy tale". This was a fun conversation! Listen in with a heart full of love and hope that makes every situation wonderful!Thanks for listening.

Today we will be talking about Preparation - being ready, and planning for the good or the not-so-good. We are all prepared. Our character is developed by the time we are 5 years old. Parents spend the majority of their time reminding children of who they are. We are prepared with the "how" to do things; it is just the application of the "when" that makes the difference. Often we see preparation when we get to the results of the situations that we overcome. I shared many examples of preparation that I didn't even know that I was developing. Every story matters and the preparation of your heart is key to success. It never matters what you feel, it only matters what you believe. I believe you have what you need and your perspective of success makes all the difference. Share your story with us. What have you gone through? Were you prepared? Did you know that you were? Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Share with others and write us a review. We would love to connect with you!

I listened to Alicia Keys' song "Underdog '' recently and I thought about all of those that are identified as an underdog and how fortunate they are. The underdog is the person that is not counted in the fight to win' yet they are winning all the time. There are people who are working and doing the work that fulfilled their purpose, their heart. How awesome to be working in the position or with the environment that you would like to work in and make a difference. I will always vote and cheer for the underdog - they are not under anything. They are on top of their purpose and most of the time following their dreams. A dream that is in their heart - that they will chase until they achieve it. The biggest gift you can give someone else is to be seen. We see you underdogs and we believe what we see. Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Share with others and write us a review.

We love our children. We should love them enough for them to have a relationship with the God that created them. Our children learn how to live based on how they witness our lives. It was important to our family to teach the children that their first relationship should be with God. God will never leave them and when the time comes that they need help beyond your hands - they will be able to rely on God. Listen in to my beliefs, my thoughts and my understanding.Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this podcast, the best compliment is a referral. Share with others and write us a review.
