As we come to the close of our “Becoming Stronger” series, Janell hoped and prayed several guests would honor us with their wisdom and grace. When Caroline Williams, founder of “The Abbey,” an at-home yoga sanctuary of peace, presence, and belonging for the lover of God who is aching to feel whole, said yes, Janell was filled with both gratitude and excitement. Caroline’s teaching on yoga and meditation has been a spiritual lifeline during COVID-19, and her wise teaching on the practice of yoga an even greater lifeline to SO MANY desiring to become stronger and more whole every single day. Please listen with an open mind and heart and enjoy Caroline’s beautiful, “I love you,” meditation at the close of the episode. I pray this “gift” is a blessing to your heart, mind, and body.

Dr. Alison Cook, Author of “Boundaries for Your Soul: How to Turn Your Overwhelming Thoughts and Feelings into Your Greatest Allies,” asks this question, “Do you control your feelings or do your feelings control you?” Many of us allow guilt, anger, or self-criticism to dominate our inner lives and adversely affect our relationships. In today’s conversation, Janell and Alison have a great conversation about how to learn to love others without neglecting yourself.

Many of us are living in the in-between places: in between sickness and health, divorce and lasting love, job frustration, and fulfillment. Recently, I had the distinct privilege to talk to the Co-founder of The Polished Network and Author of The In-Between Places:...

“We pray not to recharge our batteries for the business of getting back to the concerns of daily life, but rather to be transformed by God so that the myths and fictions of our life might fall like broken shackles from our wrists.”Dr. Chuck DeGroat, Wholeheartedness:...

“Not surprisingly, therefore, our patterns of attachment deeply influence the way we experience our relationship with God. For he has to deal with the same brain that we do; he engages the same proclivities we have for avoiding or being anxious about the intimacy of...
