My testimony - How I got to where I am today

Welcome to the first Couch Convo — a very casual episode…on my couch! For this episode, I wanted to tell my testimony - my story on how I got to where I am today. From not growing up in the church, impulsively moving to LA, leaving a 12 year friendship, working two jobs to launching this podcast and finding God, join me as I talk about it all.

My mind vs. me

I named this episode My Mind vs. Me because for a long time I felt like my mind was working against me instead of for me. From constant self-critiques to wasting time in my head instead of being present, it felt like a hidden battle that I was never going to win. Then I finally decided, I didn’t have to live like this and that I would no longer allow my mind to control me — this is when the change began. Let’s talk about it. 

Re-learning your identity

We're back for season 2!! To kick us off, let's discuss identity, again. As we grow, so does who we are. As we change, so does who we are. Join me as I talk about the issues I've faced with my identity while growing up, re-learning who I am, and accepting who I am..all of me. 

How to keep going

This episode picks up where we left off on episode 18 — now that we've started the thing, project, business, brand, book that we're called to do — how do we keep going? Join me as I talk about tips and strategies I've learned on pushing forward regardless of those things standing in my way and trying to make me stop. I'm talking discipline, intentionality, falling and getting back up, and of course, resting.

Where to start

For those that know you've been called to step out and start something new (a business, brand, podcast, book), but don't know where to start — this episode is for you. Join me as I talk about how to know it's God, being intentional with the time you spend working on it, and the tools you need to push through the doubt, fear, and insecurities to start and release it into the world.

Waiting

At some point in our life, we’re all going to be required to wait for something. Wait for the next opportunity, wait for the chance to do something, wait for the right time to start a business, wait for the right time to leave a place or someone, wait for the right relationship. Sometimes you'll be waiting a couple months and other times a few years. Join me as I talk about why waiting is necessary, how to wait with intentionality, and keeping your faith as you wait.  

Fighting the good fight

Life has a funny way of throwing things at us that make us feel like we’re constantly in the battle ring. From insecurities, rejection, heartbreak to the cards we’re dealt, there’s always something. Although it’s never easy, the biggest truth that has helped me through every battle is the fact that God has already favored me to win every fight before its even begun. His promise to me, to you, to us is victory. Join me as I talk about God’s favor in our fights, the healing process, and how to not let whatever you’re facing stop you from moving forward.

New beginnings

From transitions and new beginnings to the lessons I've learned in 2021, this episode covers it all! Join me as I dive into why I've been missing, what growing from your mistakes looks like, and how we can make 2022 the best year yet. 

Your why is everything

In this episode, I talk about the why behind everything we do. The why that keeps us going. The why behind the thoughts we think. The why behind the choices we make. It's all about becoming self-aware enough to ask ourselves why we do things that hurt us instead facing the root of the issue to ultimately heal and grow.

 

Faith steps

There are moments in our lives where we're called to make BIG life decisions that really test your faith. The type of decisions that would have you question everything around you. The type of decisions that evoke fear, doubt, worry — all of that, but something in you is still telling you to do it. Join me as I talk about the faith step that I recently had to take — leaving my job of 4+ years with no idea what I was going to do, I just knew God was calling me to leave and trust Him.
