Wednesday Jun 21, 2023
Wednesday Jun 21, 2023
Losing both breasts AND your stomach can be…hard to digest. (Pun intended ;) ). But Kathryn did it with grace and gumption, and she’s here on THRIVE to share her story as a bright light of encouragement for anyone in the throes of DIScouragement after life-changing diagnoses. She’s now had both a gastrectomy AND double mastectomy, so today’s episode features both her medical AND spiritual journey so far, with lots of laughs and powerful prayer along the way.

When God Presses Pause on YOUR Plans - with Leigh Howell
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Leigh is a mom of 3 boys, a wife, and a family physician - but in 2020, her life took a major turn (beyond 2020’s usual of a global pandemic). After receiving a cancer diagnosis, she felt God press pause on her life plans and stop the autopilot, forcing her to redirect her attention and reassess her priorities accordingly. From there she took a major shift in her medical career and a faithful jump in a different direction. Today on THRIVE, Leigh shares her story with a vulnerable inside look into her brain throughout the process, as well as tips for dealing with any feelings of guilt that may pop up when making big life shifts. We also break down the idea of “balance” and figure out the sweet spot for truly “having it all” while creating better boundaries to reflect your honest priorities in your current season.

Where Faith and Mental Health Meet (& Thrive!) - with Brittney Moses
Wednesday Feb 08, 2023
Wednesday Feb 08, 2023
“Can I follow Jesus, but also follow science?” “Can I be a good, supportive friend and validate feelings without letting feelings become facts?” ABSOLUTELY YES to all of the above - and Brittney Moses is here on THRIVE to help us make it happen. As a thought leader, content creator and advocate at the intersection of faith and mental health, Brittney is an ideal resource and incredible voice. In this episode, we talk about why therapy is still so stigmatized in some Christian circles (and how to help fix that). We talk about learning to personally differentiate between what is doable versus actually sustainable in your own life - and living accordingly. We talk about expanding beyond “I’ll pray for you!” in an authentic way to provide support via presence, practicality, validation, self-awareness, and resourcefulness. And, we talk about the difference between living “your truth” and THE Truth, and how to validate your (and others’) feelings while ultimately seeking and following Truth as guide.

Today on THRIVE, you’ll learn how to recognize God’s nudges and winks to know when to make shifts. You’ll also learn how to identify your core values so that you can set better boundaries that accurately reflect your chosen priorities.

If you’ve experienced trauma, it can feel all-consuming and overwhelming - like you’re barely surviving, let alone thriving. Taylor Squeglia has a powerful message of hope after her own lifelong experience with abuse, and she is vulnerably sharing her story for the first time ever on THRIVE today. In this episode, she openly talks about her ongoing healing journey and the power of partnering with God to continuously heal, find peace, and re-build a thriving life that you can truly love again. Since overcoming her trauma, Taylor has gone on to create her own thriving business helping other women turn their passion into profit, so she also shares some practical next steps to take today if you, too, are looking for more fulfillment and deeper meaning in what you do.
Today’s episode does come with a trigger warning, as we do talk about things like sexual assault and abuse. If you’re feeling a bit sensitive to those topics today, please feel free to listen to a different episode of THRIVE instead and come back if or when it feels right.

She was almost Sex Trafficked…but Survived - with Chandler Hatchett
Wednesday Mar 23, 2022
Wednesday Mar 23, 2022
Sex trafficking and exploitation has increased 40% since the pandemic. There are an estimated 750,000 predators online at any given time. There are currently 40.3 million people enslaved in the world - roughly 1 in every 200 people. Human trafficking is a hard reality in our world today, but we’re hoping to shine a light in the darkness and spark an important, necessary conversation. My friend Chandler was made victim of a sex trafficking attempt in Miami, and she’s bravely and boldly sharing her story today so that we can all become more informed on the horrific reality of trafficking in our world and country. Chandler also shares some important personal safety tips that she has since learned and put into practice to stay alert, tips on teaching your kids and keeping them as safe as possible (including online), and the best ways to get involved in your own community. We're in this together. Please take a stand against human trafficking with us.
