Creating space for your soul to breathe so you can discern your next right thing.

112: Two Words to Avoid

A lot of what we talk about here isn’t necessarily about the specific decision you’re holding like which job to say yes to or whether or not you ought to marry that person. Instead, we talk a lot about mindset, posture, and cultivating a listening way of life so that when tough decisions come our way, we’re better equipped to move through them.

Today I’ll share two words we can eliminate from our vocabulary, especially when we’re talking about our roles, our work, or the roles and work of others. Listen in.

    Oh! I loved this so much! I wish I had heard these words back when my children were small. It’s like a tight, loving hug from God our father! I just found your podcast and I might have to admit that I will be binge listening! ❤️

    I”m shouting a big AMEN! I left a lucrative career to return to my childhood home and care for my 96 year-old mother. . So often I use the word “just” to describe what is now my obscure life. Thank you so much for such an insightful podcast!

    Good morning!
    I did love this! (112)
    And I know you addressed it at the end.
    Might you consider using some non “artistic” examples in the main section?
    For those of us that have always wished we were those particular “just”women with the talent to do those “things” LOL
    Thank you! 💕
