Do you have any tools to help you go through the upcoming holidays? In today's episode, the inspiring Lisa Hepner joins us to talk about how to find comfort, support, and positivity during the holidays. Lisa is a Produced Screenwriter specializing in Christmas romance. Her latest work, "The Christmas Checklist," inspired by her own grief, tells the story of a grieving daughter who receives a checklist from her recently deceased mom with twelve activities she must complete before Christmas. The limited series based on "The Christmas Checklist" aired on CBC in Canada in 2022 and will air in the US on Christmas 2023. Her other movies, "Christmas Wish in Hudson," "Christmas Lover's Anonymous," "Love at the Lodge," and "Sappy Holiday," have been aired on Roku, Tubi, Amazon, CBC Canada, UpTV, and GAC Family. Throughout this episode, Lisa shares her thoughts on grief and holidays, how focusing on the positive things and enjoying every moment can help us go through grief, and how to support those who are bereaved. We also talk about the twelve items from the checklist of Lisa's book, the things we should and shouldn't say to those suffering from a loss, and how, sometimes, being a silent companion is enough. Additionally, we talk about the best remedy for a broken heart, grief, self-care, and hope during grief, the importance of giving space to our feelings to exist and express themselves, and more.

In this episode, I'm talking about the three chairs- the child, adolescent, and adult chairs. These three chairs are often used metaphorically to explore and understand different aspects of our mental and emotional development. As adults, we all spend time in each of these chairs, but the more time you are able to be in the adult chair, the more satisfying your life and relationships will become. Becoming aware of which chair you are in at any given time will help you gain greater mastery over your emotions and your life and life with more joy, health, and fulfillment. If you want a tool that will help you experience greater joy and happiness in your life, I've got one for you. It's called the Midlife Compass- 3 Simple Steps to Amplify Joy and Fulfillment in Your Life and you can get it by going to https://tinyurl.com/Midlifecompass

One of the traps for the human intellect is to take much of life for granted. Though we have special occasions peppered throughout the year, the days, weeks and months in between often don't have the same shine as the special occasions. Given that ‘normal' days are greater in number, it makes sense for us to consider ways in which we can make gratitude an everyday occurrence.   In this episode, as we approach the Thanksgiving holiday in the USA, Thom invites us to cultivate a daily sense of awe and wonder to turn every day into a special occasion.Episode Highlights:[00:45] Thanksgiving Tradition[02:59] Turn Gratitude into a Daily Habit with Meditation[04:36] Morning Awakening to Gratitude[06:28] Blessings of Our Planet[08:14] Life on Earth: A Journey Worth Celebrating[09:43] Finding Joy in Everyday Moments[11:49] Our Role in Making the World BetterUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Welcome to God-Sized Stories with Patricia Holbrook, and this is our Thanksgiving edition.In this episode, I want to share a message about developing a truly thankful heart, regardless of our circumstances. I'll take you back to a time when my children were small and we started a Thanksgiving tradition that brought us closer to God and each other. But what happens when life throws trials and tribulations our way? How can we still find reasons to be thankful when times are tough? I'll share some examples from Scripture that inspire me and demonstrate true faith in the face of adversity. And in a recent speaking engagement, I introduced the "Thanksgiving chair" concept to challenge my audience.  So this Thanksgiving season, I invite you to join me in creating your own "Thanksgiving chair" and reflect on the year's blessings and challenges. Whether your jar overflows with blessings or is filled with sorrows, may the One who works all things together for His children's good and for His glory fill you up with genuine gratitude.To give to the Agape Christmas Shelter Love Day: https://bit.ly/3ZTyRSMHappy Thanksgiving!Support the showClick on the link above to support us and help keep this show going!Click on the links to connect with Patricia on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube

We discuss how the pandemic has allowed many of us to reflect on our goals and priorities, challenging the notion of a meritocracy and redefining what success truly means. Mike shares insights into the impact of social media on self-perception, the importance of setting achievable goals, and the significance of autonomy over our time. Tune into this episode to explore strategies for creating balance, embracing fun, and curating meaningful memories to live a more fulfilling and joyful life. [06.54] Social behaviors – Social behavior is a complex concept because, when it comes to times like COVID-19, people have difficulty coping without their rhythms and routines. [12.43] Different approaches – When you are trapped in a certain way, you have to try an approach that you are comfortable with, not what other people are comfortable with.[20.17] Happiness trap – Mike explains the difference between anticipatory pleasure and consummatory pleasure.[30.54] Sacrifice – There's a certain level of sacrifice you have to make when you dream big.

Katherine and Caroline cover the practicalities of what it looks like to enter into the suffering of the people in our lives. They also discuss practicing gratitude as the antidote to comparison, which allows us to believe that the boundary lines around our lives are good and purposeful. Katherine reflects on how we can protect the narratives that are spoken over us to avoid becoming victims of our own stories. She also shares how she and her husband Jay continue to show up to a marriage full of complicated dynamics they never could have anticipated. Finally, Katherine relates some rhythms that have been enriching her life lately, like a New Testament reading plan and her family's quick and simple gratitude practice.

Do you remember when, as a child, you couldn't grasp why adults admired the abstract patterns in a piece of art? It's through the eyes of maturity that we see the beauty in the pattern, much like the little girl in our story who finally understands the weaver's work. The journey of faith often mirrors this experience. We face trials and tribulations that make little sense to us in the moment, yet there is an unwavering joy and strength anchored deep within us, much like the Master Weaver who creates beauty from chaos. We discuss how this deep-seated joy, even amidst sorrow and pain, is an incredible testament to the power of spiritual maturity. Have you ever considered that you are seen, known, heard, loved, and valued? During those moments of despair and darkness when you feel invisible and unheard, remember that Jesus, the Master Weaver, is always at work. We delve into the power of His love and how it can bring healing and hope even in the most dire of circumstances. We end on the hopeful note of how our lives can glorify Jesus, if only we choose to view our life's tapestry from the right side of the loom. And remember, you are not alone. You are a part of the grand tapestry being woven by the Master Weaver.You ARE:SEEN KNOWN HEARD LOVED VALUED

"If we are one thing and one thing only, that's not living; that's literally showing up as a manifestation of a label that someone else probably created for you, and that's not what I'm here for." - Melanie Huestis.In today's special episode, the magical Melanie Huestis joins us to talk about personal growth, healing, individuality, and how prioritizing self-care and letting go of expectations can help us find joy and fulfillment.
