Host: Celeste, The Therapist In this episode, Celeste wraps up her three-part series on love. She begins by summarizing the previous episodes: Episode 524, which delves into the origins of love and debunks the myth that love is just a feeling, and Episode 525, which explores why love can be so challenging due to old conditioning and the need for mindfulness and self-awareness. Today's discussion focuses on self-love and how to cultivate healthy relationships. Celeste emphasizes the importance of understanding and practicing self-love as a foundation for building better relationships with others. She encourages listeners to revisit the first two episodes for a comprehensive understanding and to take notes during the podcast.

In this episode, Abby shares her late bloomer story with so much honesty and clarity. We talk about what it was like to be in her mid-30s, never having been in a serious relationship, carrying a loud "I'm behind" and "I'm weird" narrative, and feeling totally unsure how to talk about her dating history without spiraling. Abby opens up about moving to a new city, trying to date while feeling embarrassed about her experience, and struggling with the not good enough voice that made her avoid connection. She also shares what shifted for her as she started to process shame, build community, and trust herself enough to take up more space at work, in dating, and in her daily life. Inside this episode, you'll hear: how Abby learned to identify and quiet the "I'm weird" and "I'm behind" voice how belonging helped her stop self-isolating and start connecting what helped her ask for what she wanted (down to "I need 25% more texts") how she advocated for herself at work while doing two jobs how she built friendships, community, and eventually a healthy relationship what she wishes she could tell her past self, who felt so far behind This is a powerful example of what can happen when you stop avoiding your desires and start trusting yourself enough to move toward them.

Join Me for the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge A homeschool mom self-care challenge that honours you. Homeschool mama, I see you. December is here, and it feels like an avalanche of ALL the things.Every month as a homeschool mom is full, but December? It's a whole new level. You're trying to finish things up, or you’re moving into a unit study on Christmas, you’re purchasing, prepping, planning, and playing—and you just added a part time-job to your full-time job. But as a homeschool mama, when December rolls around, mama ain’t looking after herself, she’s looking, after ALL the things. And though ALL the things are a whole lot of things EVERY other month, December’s ALL the things is an exponential set of things. Though you’re trying to do all the things, fulfill the expectations, and make it magical for your kids, you can’t do a little bit more if you didn’t already incorporate an approach to maintain margins and pursue purposeful living. That's why I'm inviting you to join me for the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms. This isn't another TO DO list. It's a TO GIVE list—a way to give back to yourself. Join the 12 Day Self-Care Challenge Why Self-Care Matters As homeschool moms, we have a unique calling. We're deeply present with our kids, invested in their well-being, and working hard to create meaningful memories and learning experiences. We savor moments of: Watching our kids harmoniously play together (sometimes). Cheering them on as they tackle new challenges. Seeing their excitement as they pursue new interests. Building lifelong memories as a family. But there's another side to this season: The constant stream of emotions (theirs and ours). Sibling squabbles. Complaints and meltdowns. And, of course, the never-ending mundane tasks—laundry, dishes, meals, and errands. Even when we handle these challenges with grace, the emotional and mental investment is enormous. Add the holidays to the mix, and it's no wonder we feel stretched thin. The Secret Ingredient to a (more) Peaceful Holiday Season Here's the thing: you matter too. Your well-being is not just an afterthought—it's the foundation of a happy family life and a peaceful holiday season. Self-care: Refills your energy so you can approach the holidays with calm and joy. Models healthy balance and boundaries for your children. Helps you manage stress and let go of perfection. Strengthens your emotional resilience to handle challenges with patience and grace. Creates space for joy and presence, helping you savor the small, magical moments. When you care for yourself, you're giving your family the best gift of all—a peaceful, grounded, and joyful mama. What You'll Get in the 12-Day Challenge In just fifteen minutes a day—maybe even five—you'll explore simple, practical self-care strategies that fit into your busy December. These strategies aren't just for the holidays; they're tools to carry into the new year, helping you nurture yourself and your family with greater ease and satisfaction. By the end of these 12 days, you'll feel: More energized. More connected to yourself. And more at peace as you move through this beautiful, busy season. And so we must take care of ourselves. Join the 12 Days of Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge Join Me—You Deserve This So, homeschool mama, this is your invitation to take a breath, step back, and remember that you are worth nurturing. Let's do this together. This December, give yourself the gift of care, calm, and connection. Join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms and rediscover the joy of the season—not just for your family, but for you too. Just fifteen minutes a day. You've got this.

Today I'm sharing a podcast that I was lucky enough to be a guest on. The information was so good I'm sharing it here. Kat and April, both seasoned parenting experts with over 15 years of experience, bring unique perspectives to the field of parenting expertise and experience. Kat emphasizes that true parenting expertise stems from practical knowledge gained from working with numerous families, valuing hands-on experience and straightforward, humorous advice, much like that of Jamie Glowacki. April, with her background in social work, shares a similar appreciation for humor and practicality, advocating for a balance between guiding and nurturing children amidst modern parenting challenges. Together, they champion an approach that prioritizes everyday enjoyment and meaningful parent-child connections over rigid, structured methods, aligning with Glowacki's emphasis on emotional intelligence and unstructured play.Timestamps:(00:02:45) "Toddler Years Made Enjoyable: Practical Parenting Solutions"(00:13:23) Parenting with Emotional Intelligence for Healthy Relationships(00:17:02) Promoting Independence Through Child Conflict Resolution(00:22:10) Encouraging Full-Body Contact Play for Children(00:25:13) Repairing Relationships Through Respectful Parenting(00:25:20) "Code Word Communication for Kids' Play"(00:35:19) Promoting Emotional Awareness and Regulation in Children(00:35:44) Embracing Emotional Authenticity in Parenting(00:43:13) Prioritizing Basic Needs for Parenting Success(00:43:14) Understanding Developmental Tantrums in Toddlers(00:46:01) Nutritious Meals for Behavioral Improvement in Children(00:53:48) Toddler Sleep Boundaries for Healthy Behavior(01:06:28) Balancing Parental Control in Busy Schedules(01:10:27) Encouraging Child-Led Play for Social Development(01:10:28) Building Strong Attachments: Parenting in Modern Times
In this episode, we discuss why women feel they can't find a healthy masculine man. We delve into the importance of inner frequency, specifically how women should approach finding healthy masculine men; monitoring their own mindset and energy. We discuss why some men resent their roles as husbands, fathers and providers. The episode also covers the challenges of raising boys in a society that may push them into unhealthy expressions of masculinity and offers insights on balancing discipline with love. The host shares personal experiences raising both a son and a daughter, aiming to cultivate internal safety and feminine energy in daughters while fostering resilience and strength in sons. 00:42 The Quest for Healthy Masculine Men 01:19 The Importance of Frequency and Energy in Attraction 03:13 Raising Masculine Boys and Feminine Girls 05:34 The Impact of Trauma on Femininity 06:48 Building Internal Safety and Healthy Relationships 08:45 Raising Resilient and Disciplined Boys 11:24 Empathy and Responsibility in Relationships 13:05 The Benefits of Marriage for Men 16:42 The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy of Negative Beliefs 20:33 Raising Children with Strong Family Values 22:35 Conclusion: Becoming an Energetic Match for Healthy Relationships Key Quotes: " You can't simultaneously hate men and think you're gonna attract a man who is going to love you because you will radiate a negative energy" "...angry men are just wounded, sad little boys inside."

Send us a textJoin Marc Almodovar, Founder of the Men's ADHD Support Group, and Kyrus Westcott of The Vibe with Ky as they explore what some think is a taboo subject: Ethical Non-Monogamy.But here's the thing, this isn't a talk about whether you should practice ethical non-monogamy. It's about what ENM can teach us about communication, boundaries, consent, and intentional relationship design, skills that make every relationship healthier, regardless of structure.When you can't rely on default relationship scripts, you have to talk about everything. You have to get clear on what you want, what you need, and what your boundaries actually are. That clarity? It's valuable for everyone.In this conversation, Marc and Kyrus explore:Why clear communication beats assumptions every timeHow to identify and communicate your actual needs (not just what you think you're supposed to want)The difference between agreements and expectationsWhy boundaries are about you, not controlling someone elseHow to design relationships that actually work for the people in themYou don't need to be interested in ENM to benefit from this. You don't need to agree with it. You're here to learn, not to commit to anything. Take what fits your life and leave the rest.This is a safe conversation. You're allowed to be curious. You're allowed to feel uncomfortable, excited, confused, or skeptical. All of it belongs here.Whether you're in a traditional relationship, single, or exploring other options, the relationship skills discussed apply. Because healthy relationships—of any structure—are built on the same foundation: honesty, communication, and intentional choice.If you're interested in Ky's amazing cologne check it out here -- https://sucreabeille.com/products/why-did-i-walk-into-this-roomIf you're interested in following Ky you can check out his website -- https://thevibewithky.com/Also follow him on all major platforms @vibewithky! 00:23 - Ky's Background and Achievements01:49 - Introduction to Ethical Non-Monogamy03:23 - Understanding Ethical Non-Monogamy04:56 - Ky's Personal Experience with ADHD and Relationships11:52 - Exploring Relationship Structures20:46 - Neurodivergent Traits and Ethical Non-Monogamy31:10 - Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) and Jealousy39:20 - Practical Tools for Managing RSD and Jealousy41:11 - Reflecting on Fear-Based Stories in Relationships42:10 - Understanding ADHD Challenges in Relationships45:11 - Effective Tools for Managing ADHD in Relationships49:46 - Expressing Vulnerable Feelings and Needs52:32 - Open Q&A: Navigating Communication and Jealousy1:03:30 - Balancing Time and Conflict Resolution Strategies Check out our website for great blogs, information, and upcoming events!

This week at ease, Dave Henderson joins the table for a gentle, unexpected conversation about legacy, family, and all the invisible work that holds us up. Dave spent decades building medical offices across California, but really, he was building something deeper: trust, consistency, and a community within his business. In this episode, we talk about why jobs aren't forever, why success has to come from within, and how your job isn't your purpose. Dave opens up about carrying a family business, leading quietly, navigating early failures, and the moment he realized that real purpose isn't found in titles but in how you show up for people. We explore what it means to build a legacy you're proud of, how structure can be healing, and why the strongest foundations are often the ones no one sees. Dave also shares how he's learning to pass down more than just a business. He's passing down intention, integrity, and promise. It's an episode about presence, pressure, and choosing to lead with heart, even when no one's watching.

What is gluttony really? If you’ve ever worried about overeating, obsessing about food, or wondered whether enjoying that extra slice of cake is a spiritual failure, this episode is for you. Best-selling author and host Heather Creekmore dives deep into the true heart behind gluttony—exploring why our modern definitions miss the mark and how diet culture and church culture have distorted our understanding. Heather reframes gluttony, drawing on biblical insight, church history, and thought-provoking examples from C.S. Lewis and Tim Keller. She challenges the idea that gluttony is simply about having seconds or what’s on your plate and asks powerful questions about cravings, control, and where we derive our satisfaction. Plus, Heather explores how misplaced fears about food can keep us stuck and why true freedom comes from surrender—not self-denial. Whether food has become a source of stress or you’re striving for perfect control, this conversation will open your eyes to new ways of understanding your desires and finding satisfaction. Ready to rethink gluttony and experience food freedom? Listen now for practical encouragement, spiritual wisdom, and a fresh take you won’t want to miss!

Preaching: Transitional Pastor, Jack HawkinsSermon title - Healthy Relationship HabitsSermon text - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8Sermon Questions:When you are in conflict are you more likely to examine the people around you or to examine your own heart?What are you doing to create environments of acceptance?
In this message, we explore one of the most misunderstood and transformative passages in Scripture: Ephesians 5–6. When Paul teaches believers to “submit to one another out of reverence for Christ,” he reveals a Gospel-centered blueprint for marriage, parenting, leadership, and everyday relationships. This teaching walks through how Jesus completely flips power dynamics, reshapes our view of authority, and calls both the strong and the weak into a new way of relating — a way modeled after His own humility and sacrificial love. You'll learn: • Why mutual submission was revolutionary in the ancient world • How the Gospel elevates your position before God and lowers your posture before others • What biblical submission actually is — and what it's not • How Christ-like love transforms marriages, families, and workplaces • Why humility and sacrifice create flourishing relationships Whether you're navigating marriage, parenting, friendships, or leadership, this message will challenge and encourage you to live out the Gospel in every relationship.
In today's episode, I sat down with my dear friend Morgan Huelsman, you know her on instagram asWeb Girl Morgan, for an honest, vulnerable conversation about healing after toxic relationships, rebuilding self-trust, and opening yourself up to emotionally available, secure love. We dive into what it really takes to become ready for the kind of relationship that meets you with empathy, consistency, and effort and the beautiful (and sometimes uncomfortable) adjustments that come with receiving a healthy partner after years of unhealthy dynamics.Inside the Episode, We Cover:Why “not meeting your person yet” is rarely about luck or timing and how inner readiness and emotional availability set the stage for secure love.What dating someone emotionally available actually feels like, including learning how to receive support, communicate needs, and soften into safety.How to thrive in your single season by building a life you genuinely love now instead of waiting for a relationship to “finally feel happy.”If this conversation sparks something in you, if you're thinking, I want this kind of love, but I don't know how to get there, I want you to know it's absolutely possible for you. This is exactly the work we do inside Empowered.Secure.Loved.✨ Applications for the ESL Program are closing for the year. If your heart is nudging you, trust yourself and apply now. Don't wait. Your secure, healthy relationship is too important to put off.You deserve high self-worth and great relationships and you don't have to figure it out alone.

Raising children is multifaceted. The goal for many of us is to raise resilient well-adjusted children who contribute to society in a meaningful way and to have a good adult relationship with them. But there are ups and downs and challenges from infancy to adulthood. How we as parents navigate those times impacts our child's ability to bounce back from a setback and the relationship we have with them once they are adults. In this episode, Alita Guillen sits down with Dr. Koraly Pérez-Edgar, a developmental psychologist, Penn State professor, and editor-in-chief of Developmental Psychology.Together, they explore how our earliest traits, like shyness or boldness, interact with our environment to shape who we become. Dr. Pérez-Edgar shares how her research connects temperament and attention, revealing how some children learn to regulate anxiety and thrive while others struggle. They discuss what parents and teachers can do to support kids' emotional growth, how to spot early signs of social anxiety, and why understanding behavior isn't about labels—it's about compassion.This conversation offers a fascinating look into the science of human development. From the biology of fear to the power of supportive relationships, Dr. Pérez-Edgar shows how small moments can have a lifelong impact.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@alitaguillenInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/alitakguillen/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/10secondstoair/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alitaguillen/Web: https://www.alitaguillen.com/Web: https://www.10secondstoair.com/
Presented by Julie Busteed I've been looking at what it takes to build healthy relationships. And I've saved the best for last: forgiveness. This verse in Matthew always catches me short. For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins (Matthew 6:14-15). I need to take to heart this command! Relationships are living, growing things because they involve people who are growing and changing. And because you are human, there will be times when words are spoken or actions are taken that hurt someone in the relationship. You and I need to forgive others and also ask for forgiveness—things that are not easy to do, except through the power of the Holy Spirit. But wait—there's more! Jesus said we should love our enemies. I look at Jesus' example of laying down his life for you and me. When he was on the cross, suffering, he forgave those who crucified him. Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do (Luke 23:34). That's the ultimate in forgiving your enemies. It really seems quite impossible, doesn't it? Jesus was fully God and fully man. But I don't think that excuses you or me to forgive even our enemies. Corrie Ten Boom and her family helped many Jewish people escape the Nazi's in WW2. As a result, she was arrested and sent to Ravensbrück concentration camp. She survived and wrote books and spoke about her experience. Corrie recounts the following as she was speaking about forgiveness at a church in Munich in 1947: Afterward, I saw him—a man moving toward me through the crowd. I recognized him instantly: a former guard from Ravensbrück, the concentration camp where my sister Betsie and I had been imprisoned for hiding Jews. He approached me, now dressed in civilian clothes, and said, “A fine message, Fräulein. How good it is to know that all our sins are at the bottom of the sea.” Then he extended his hand. “I was a guard at Ravensbrück. I've become a Christian, and I know God has forgiven me, but I would like to hear it from you. Will you forgive me?” I stood frozen, remembering Betsie's suffering and death. Forgive him? I could not. Yet I knew Jesus' words: “If you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive yours.” Forgiveness is not a feeling—it's an act of the will. So, I prayed silently, “Jesus, help me. I can lift my hand; You supply the feeling.” Mechanically, I reached out—and as I did, a current seemed to pass from my shoulder to our joined hands. A warmth filled my heart. “I forgive you, brother,” I said, “with all my heart.” In that moment, I felt God's love more deeply than ever before.[1] May you and I be obedient and lift our hands and trust God to fill us with his love. --- [1] Corrie Ten Boom, Sherrill, E., & Sherrill, J. L. (2008). The hiding place. Chosen Books.

Presented by Julie Busteed Humility may not be the first trait that comes to your mind as an essential element in healthy relationships. That's what I will look at today as we continue to seek to grow healthy relationships. The first thing that comes to mind when I hear the word humility is I need to have a low opinion of myself. But that's not correct. It's about being interested in others. Serving others. Yes, modesty is part of humility, but it's not being down on yourself. It's putting others first. Paul exhorts the Philippians and us to do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others (Philippians 2:3-4). Becky Harling, author of Cultivating Deeper Connections in a Lonely World, writes humble people come in curious to the conversation, and this curiosity is the superpower of connections! They listen and ask questions. They don't come in like the expert. I love that! We can have this superpower if we are simply interested and curious. And that's what I think the Apostle Paul is talking about—to look not to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Humility also is shown by just being kind, lending a hand, helping a coworker. My friend Heather recently showed a beautiful example of humility. She had her day carefully planned with a full to-do list, but when a friend reached out to spend time together, she chose to set her plans aside. It wasn't what she had intended for the day, and honestly, it wasn't what she felt like doing at the moment—but she recognized her friend needed someone to listen. What makes this even more meaningful is this friendship isn't always easy or comfortable. Yet that very morning, Heather “happened” to read Proverbs 3:27–28. Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act. Do not say to your neighbor, ‘Come back tomorrow and I'll give it to you'—when you already have it with you (Proverbs 3:27–28). Those verses were a timely reminder that God sometimes calls us to act in the moment—to give of ourselves, our time, or our attention—when it's within our power to do so. Heather reflected the heart of Christ that day by choosing relationship over routine, allowing herself to be “interrupted” in order to show love and kindness right when it was needed most. I pray you and I will be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love (Ephesians 4:2).

Presented by Julie Busteed I'm looking at some strategies to help grow and build relationships—principles that apply at work, home, church—with everyone. The first two strategies I looked at were loving others and communication skills. I think integrity is also an important component in healthy relationships. Integrity really covers several qualities. It's being honest, having strong moral principles, and being trustworthy and reliable. A great example of integrity in the Old Testament is Daniel. He was taken into captivity from Israel to Babylon, and he became an adviser to the Babylonian kings because of his integrity and trust in God. For many, it's a familiar story but to recap: Daniel refuses to bow down and worship a man-made idol. He worships and prays to God. As a result, he is thrown into a literal lion's den. The next morning, he testifies that my God sent his angel, and he shut the mouths of the lions. They have not hurt me, because I was found innocent in his sight (Daniel 6:22a). Not only did God protect and preserve Daniel, but King Darius also decrees everyone in his kingdom must fear and revere the God of Daniel. Daniel's integrity and courage not only effected his own life, but the entire kingdom was now to fear God. He trusted and honored God in his actions, and his integrity was evident to his employer, resulting in a testimony to the entire kingdom. Integrity can also be something significant done privately, not for public recognition. A friend of mine recently showed a great example of integrity. She just published a book through a traditional publisher. Normally, when you work with a publisher, you receive an advance against future royalties—meaning you don't earn additional royalties until the book's sales cover that advance. And if the book doesn't sell enough to cover it, the author doesn't have to pay it back. That's completely normal. But my friend told me she wants to make sure her book's sales do reach that advance amount. She's putting in extra effort to promote and market her book because she doesn't want to be a burden to the publisher. She isn't required to do this—it's not part of her contract—but she feels it's the right thing to do. Quiet integrity. In both of these examples, integrity was a vital characteristic in dealing with others. Integrity directed how they should act in certain situations—be it life or death—or something that's not really seen by others. With faith in God and belief he is faithful, they lived out their lives in honor to him. Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out (Proverbs 10:9). When we live our lives with integrity, we can walk securely—quietly resting upon God's favor and gracious providence.

Presented by Julie Busteed Are there people in your life you find difficult to get along with or really understand? I am examining biblical strategies to help grow and build healthy relationships, and communication is a key tool. A verse you might be familiar with is everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry (James 1:19b). Honestly if we all practiced that, I think there would be much less miscommunication. Let's break this down. What does it mean to be quick to listen? Studies show good communication is essential for organizations. Marjorie North—a communications expert—says we only hear half of what is being said in any given conversation. It's true, isn't it? I can be distracted by something outside the conversation, or I can begin to form a response to something the person said. No matter what distracts me, I struggle to listen. You and I need to practice active listening. And I mean practice; it will take a lot of practice. Put the distractions away—and by this, I mean your phone! Give the person your full attention. I know someone who is so good at this. I can tell when I am speaking to him I have his full attention. It's a great thing to be heard—really heard. Some other ways to be quick to listen is to repeat back what you believe you heard the person saying. And if you don't understand something, ask clarifying questions. Try not to interrupt them. What does it mean to be slow to speak? I think we need to be careful and thoughtful. Examine your words before you say them. Depending on what the conversation is, you might even need some time to think before responding. Do you see someone who speaks in haste? There is more hope for a fool than for them (Proverbs 29:20). Those who guard their lips preserve their lives, but those who speak rashly will come to ruin (Proverbs 13:3). James also goes on to talk about our tongues—what we say and how our words can bless or curse others. He compares our tongue to the bit that steers a horse or the rudder that guides a ship. What comes out of your mouth can not only corrupt your whole body but others as well. The Psalmist prays to set a guard over my mouth, Lord; keep watch over the door of my lips (Psalm 141:3). And the Apostle Paul encourages the Ephesians to not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen (Ephesians 4:29). Good communication in relationships is necessary. It's a skill you and I can practice and improve, but we need to be mindful and intentional.
The very morning I did this interview, my husband was complaining about how badly he felt because of a certain number...and when I heard Heidi's final "practical" challenge to parents, I knew we had to do it. This interview was a HUGE paradigm shift for me, and you will alternately want to turn it off as it gets challenging and find yourself cheering out loud!Heidi Schauster, MS, RDN, CEDRD-S is an expert on eating disorders and talks with me today about how we as parents can foster a healthy relationship with food for our kids. We cover risk factors for eating disorders, mindful eating, how to handle treats at school and elsewhere, what "rules" parents should (and should not!) have for food in the home, the quickest way to make your child into a binge eater, how we should talk about weight and body image with our kids, and so much more.This is a MUST WATCH interview because our entire culture is disordered in how to think and talk about body image, so we have a LOT of work to do to make positive change! Heidi and I continued to talk after I ended the recording and I kept catching myself using the wrong language about food. She said, "This is great - you're creating new neural pathways right in front of my eyes!"

Presented by Julie Busteed Have you ever said or thought this? “I'd love this job if it just wasn't for the people!” I know this is a sarcastic saying—it's more tongue in cheek—but it's how we feel sometimes isn't it? Yet as Christ-followers, the greatest command Jesus gave us is to love God and love others. This week, we'll look at some strategies to help us as we relate to others around us—our family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors. Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself'” (Matthew 22:37-39). The first priority in dealing with our relationships is to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind! Our relationship with God is essential. It affects everything, including our relationships with others. Take a minute to ask yourself these questions: Are you spending daily time with God? Reading his Word? Praying? This is the first place to start. It's vital for you and me to make our relationship with God the foundation of our lives. Sometimes it can be easy to think, “I have a relationship with God, and that's enough. I don't need others. I don't need to go to church.” But that's not true either. God is a triune God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There is community between them, and as image-bearers, we need community not only with God but also with each other. God made you for community and connection. Since you and I are made to be in community, how do we do this well? Jesus goes on to say we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. What does it mean to love your neighbor? Love is an action—not just a feeling—a romantic feeling. It's not the same as like. Love is giving of yourself and putting others first. It could look like delivering a meal to someone in need. Or helping a coworker with a project. Or praying with or for someone. It can take many forms; the main thing is that you see others—notice when they are in need—and reach out to help and care for them.

You're listening to voices of your village. And today I'm joined by my incredible friend Dr. Tracy. She is a clinical psychologist, couples therapist, and author of the new book, You, Your Husband and His Mother. This was such a fun conversation. We got honest and had just compassionate conversation about what it looks like to show up as both a partner and a parent, while also navigating those tricky extended family dynamics. We dug into the challenges so many of us face with in-laws, with our own parents, and how setting boundaries can actually create more connection, not less. We talked about the pressure to be everything to everyone, and how tuning in to your own needs and voice is a game changer for your relationship, your parenting, and your peace.
