This is a special holiday reprise of one of Broadway Nation's most popular episodes: It's an audio version of a Broadway Nation Live! performance that was presented in December of 2019 at the Vashon Center For The Performing Arts on Vashon Island just outside of Seattle, WA.

Have you ever been so worn down by your circumstances that it seemed impossible to believe there could be anything good on the other side?  Just twenty-four hours after her late boyfriend's unexpected passing, Stephanie was feeling everything and nothing at the same time. Yet in the blur of grief, her mom kept repeating to her something she would never forget.  “I promise you, only good will come of this.”  It was a promise that would give her the purpose to get through and ultimately became what inspired Track 8, Only Good Will Come of This. Join Stephanie as she shares how she learned to find the good in the hardest season of her life and the blessings that came as she found her way back again. The power of my parents united support Why we have to take the steps to keep going The divine in the writing room How openness to our journey impacts not only ourselves but others At our weakest moments is often when we need to dig in the deepest to find the strength to go on and that is why this song is so close to her heart. Because whenever it all seemed unbearable she would return to her Mom's words as a true north on her healing journey. And friend, putting one foot in front of the other, now you can too.   Quotes from the episode:  "Intentionally find a small amount of goodness, even on the days it feels impossible."

Have you ever been brought to the edge of yourself?  No matter the journey, when we reach that pivotal fork in the road, we are all faced with the question: Will I let this take me under or will I choose to find the strength to keep going?  After the revelations of Stephanie's late boyfriend's infidelities, she was shattered.  But what she would come to learn is that pushing forward is not the same as being present to your pain. And that is exactly where her battle cry, The Edge, came from. Tune into today's episode to hear some of the lessons she learned as she journeyed to the edge of her anger and the hope she found on the other side. In this episode you'll hear: How isolation can keep you stuck in your healing What anger can teach you about yourself How touching the edge opens you to your inner strength   This song was once a pathway of self-reflection but now serves as a reminder of the strength that carried her to where she is today. Because even though we might want to go around our pain, the only way out is through.   Listen to the full album On The Edge and track 7 The Edge here:  https://streamlink.to/OnTheEdgeAlbum   Quotes from the episode:  "A story of redemption doesn't give us the gift to forget but it does allow us to use our scars for good."

Have you ever found yourself belonging to a club you didn't sign up for?  Maybe a circumstance only happened to you but somehow along the way you keep finding people who share a similar experience. In learning that Stephanie wasn't the only woman in her late boyfriend's life, she suddenly found herself a lifetime member of a strange club. A sisterhood of women who, though they had never met, were forever bound together by the colliding stories of his infidelities. As Stephanie walked the long road forward, Track 6, Strange Club, became a representation of a turning point in her healing.  On today's episode, she'll share about the impact of owning the reality of her circumstance and how telling her truth has brought her even more freedom than she could have imagined. Tune in to hear:  How the electric guitar line reflects the theme of the song The camaraderie she has found in this strange little club How healing can come through humor Why the best way to tell her story was through music   Though we may not have a choice in what life throws our way, we will always have a choice in what we choose to do with what happens to us. Because at one point or another, there is a good chance we'll all be members of some type of strange club.   Quotes from the episode: It's all a choice in what we choose to do with what happens to us. Grasping reality allows you to sometimes find this weird level of healing through humor and there's a different level of strength that comes from that. When you can laugh about it you own it. Whatever you have gone through doesn't have to define you.

Have you ever found yourself in the middle of a circumstance in your life and wished you had the pen to rewrite the plot entirely? I mean, aren't we supposed to be the main character of our own story? Just a few weeks after her late boyfriend's passing, Stephanie found herself trying to acclimate to a new reality. Even though her whole world had come to a screeching halt, time kept moving. It felt impossible to imagine that she could return to doing anything that she loved ever again, especially returning to her music. Thankfully, those closest to her knew that that was in fact the lifeline she needed to be able to begin again. Returning to the stage brought the little bit of lightness she needed to move forward into the heaviness of her reality and that is exactly the perspective she wrote Track 5, Fiction, from. If you are in a situation you can't wrap your head around and are longing for a way through, you won't want to miss today's episode as she shares, Why this song unironically was a total rewrite How fighting for lightness can provide a way through your pain Why telling this story has been so valuable to my grieving process How accepting your reality can free you to return to yourself While what you see in front of you might not be the life you had imagined, let Stephanie be the friend to remind you, you are still the main character of your story and there is a whole lot of living yet to do. Quotes from the episode: This is how I believe we are able to get through things because we are all going through the same things, just different versions of the gray, because really nothing is black and white. If you feel that your situation is taking you under, is pulling you down. Search and fight for any level of lightness because it'll be what gets you through.

Have you ever found yourself in a relationship trying to quiet the subtle nudge that something just isn't quite right? Or, when red flags kept finding their way in front of you, you were just so smitten you chose to let them slide? After Stephanie's late boyfriend passed, she found herself trying to pick up the pieces of what she thought her relationship was and the actual reality of it.  From the view of the other side, she wrote the fourth song on her album, Charmed, a light-hearted recount of the beginning and end of their relationship and an anthem of solidarity for anyone who has found themselves in a similar situation.  On today's episode, she will share some of the red flags she missed and a few key realizations that have brought her to a place of not only trusting others again but herself. Tune in to hear: The Christmas gift that became the metaphor for her relationship Why trustworthy people are a necessity to your inner circle Why your gut is your biggest advocate How your story isn't defined by your past   In reality, her story is not uncommon, because any time our hearts get involved, acting on what we innately know becomes that much harder. But, what if what we think will break us actually might build us?   Quotes from the episode:  "If your gut is signaling to you early on, listen to it before you don't trust it anymore." "Borrow courage in the fact of knowing you have the ability to change your future no matter what has happened in your past."   Listen to the full album On The Edge and track 4 Charmed here:  https://streamlink.to/OnTheEdgeAlbum   Thank you to our sponsors, SPLENDOR WATER.

Have you ever been left without answers after the ending of a relationship? How do you move on when you so desperately are seeking closure through these answers?  In this episode, Stephanie is taking you behind the scenes of Track 3 from her album, Last Breath, as she chronicles in song how she was able to move forward in life without answers from her late boyfriend to the questions that were keeping her stuck.  Tune in to this episode to hear:  How Stephanie initially reacted after hearing the news that she wasn't the only woman in her late boyfriend's life, The change to Last Breath suggested by the producer that changed the song, How Stephanie initially coped with the pain, and how you may relate to this, too -  What you ACTUALLY need to move forward in life, and Why you shouldn't limit the pain you feel during a hard time.   Even if your relationship didn't end with the death of a loved one, sometimes it can feel like that when they walk out of your life. Closure is hard without answers - but healing is attainable nonetheless. Tune in to find the courage you need to pursue wholeness in life and dive into the story behind Stephanie's vulnerable song as she asks:  “Would you leave me questioning everything you ever said, if you knew it was your last breath?”   Quotes from the episode:  When you limit your ability to feel the pain, you limit your ability to feel joy, too. You don't need closure to move on. You need something else: healing. You have to feel it to be able to heal it.   Listen to the full album On The Edge and track 3 Last Breath here:  https://streamlink.to/OnTheEdgeAlbum   Thank you to our sponsors, SPLENDOR WATER.

After listening, go hug your loved ones a little tighter today.   Quotes from the episode:   “But isn't that just life? Confusing, contradictory, and chaotic all at once. And once we start to accept that as our truth - as the truth - that's when we can really start to accept ourselves, just as we are.”   Listen to the full album On The Edge and track 2 Like She Is here:  https://streamlink.to/OnTheEdgeAlbum   Thank you to our sponsors, SPLENDOR WATER.

“Joy to the World” was written in 1719 as a musical interpretation of Psalm 98, a prophecy about the coming King. “JOY TO THE WORLD” LYRICS… “Joy to the earth, the Savior reigns. Let all their songs employ. While field and floods, rocks, hills, and plains, repeat the sounding joy…” “He rules the world with truth and grace and makes the nations prove. The glories of His righteousness, and wonders of His love…” PSALM 98 “Oh, sing to the Lord a new song! For He has done marvelous things; His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory. The Lord has made known His salvation; His righteousness He has revealed in the sight of the nations. He has remembered His mercy and His faithfulness to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth; break forth in song, rejoice, and sing praises. Sing to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and the sound of a psalm, with trumpets and the sound of a horn; shout joyfully before the Lord, the King. Let the sea roar, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell in it; 8 let the rivers clap their hands; let the hills be joyful together before the Lord, for He is coming to judge the earth. With righteousness He shall judge the world, and the peoples with equity.” WHAT IS THE PROPHECY IN “JOY TO THE WORLD” ABOUT? This Psalm is a prophecy related to God's promise of a King who will usher in a kingdom without end and reverse the curse of sin over all creation. TWO KINGDOMS: OF HEAVEN and OF GOD The lyrics of “Joy to the World” reflect the nature of both the “Kingdom of Heaven” and the “Kingdom of God”. While these are similar in Scripture, they are not exactly synonymous. The chorus goes… “Joy to the world, the Lord is come. Let Earth receive her King. Let every heart prepare Him room and heaven and nature sing.” The “kingdom of heaven” is the rule of heaven on earth. It is a physical kingdom (See Acts 1:5-6, Matthew 3:1-2). The “kingdom of God” is the rule of God in our hearts. It is a spiritual kingdom (See Romans 14:17, Matthew 6:33). So then, how do you enter the “Kingdom of Heaven” and the “Kingdom of God”?
