Yes, Jesus Cares about your Mental Health - with Laura Smith
Wednesday Feb 21, 2024
Wednesday Feb 21, 2024
We’re back with best-selling author, speaker, Bible teacher, and my friend Laura Smith, and we’re chatting all about her newest book: Holy Care for the Whole Self. It’s full of truth and encouragement connecting our mental AND spiritual health journeys, and it’s going to leave you feeling refreshed and breathing easier in your own earthly walk. But if you have not yet grabbed copy, we’ll wait - and give you some really solid advice and steadfast reminders in the meantime, especially great if you’ve ever found yourself struggling mentally and maybe shaming yourself spiritually. You are not broken. There’s nothing wrong with you. You don’t have to “pray away” your pain - it is okay, and right, to seek earthly AND heavenly help. Jesus CARES about your mental health - and Laura is here to break down the “both/and” of seeking healing.

Wednesday May 17, 2023
Wednesday May 17, 2023
Whether you’ve been sober-curious for a while or never even considered taking a break from booze, today’s episode is for you. Karolina Rzadkowolska is a speaker, podcaster, and the author of Euphoric: Ditch Alcohol and Gain a Happier More Confident You, and she’s got a completely jam-packed, informative episode ahead that will probably blow your mind (in the best sense). Today on THRIVE, she breaks down what alcohol - in any amount - actually *does* to our bodies and brains, as well as what you can realistically expect from a break. She gives the full lowdown on WHY to consider a break, even if you don’t have “a problem” with alcohol (and why she’s personally alcohol-free after years of being “a drinker”). And beyond that, she gives helpful tricks and tools for managing the social side of it all - how to still have fun (loads of it!), feel confident (even moreso!), and literally live out your wildest, biggest dreams sans booze.

If you’ve ever been betrayed, you know the pain is unlike any other kind of trauma.

Dr. Debi is a holistic psychologist, a health, mindset and personal development expert, the author of multiple bestselling books, host of two TEDx talks, an award-winning coach and speaker, and the founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation Institute, where she has helped thousands of people heal after experiencing her own life-changing betrayals from MULTIPLE close family members.

Do you have Adrenal Fatigue? - with Maja Miller
Wednesday Feb 22, 2023
Wednesday Feb 22, 2023
So many of us are…tired. We’ve hustled, we’ve grinded, we’ve burned the candle at both ends, and now, we’re exhausted. Beyond feeling fatigued, we might be straight up burnt out, and we may not know how to get out of the burn out bubble in a way that feels natural, healthy and sustainable. Metabolic health coach and functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner Maja Miller is a PRO at looking at your lifestyle - and labs - and creating a bio-individualized protocol to give you more energy for your own life. Today on THRIVE, Maja gives us the full lowdown on adrenal fatigue: what it is, how it happens, and how to fix it and prevent it if you’re already there. She connects the dots between adrenals and other health issues you may be experiencing, and gives us ideas for holistic, healthy, LITTLE lifestyle changes and swaps you can make for big results.

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.
