Today we're talking about the difference between personal and circumstantial power, and how easily we can give our power to think, feel, and act away to things happening outside of us.

That We Might Have Joy

The scriptures tell us that "men are they they might have joy." But if God intended us to have joy, why does it sometimes feel so elusive and hard to come by?

Your Thoughts Matter

This week we're talking about why your thoughts matter! Sometimes thought work can seem tedious, and the results don't come as quickly as we'd hoped. But that's no reason to give up!

Designing Your Identity

This week we're talking about how your identity, or self-image, determines what you believe about who you are and what's possible for your life.

But now we know that we have the capacity for so much more growth and development than we ever imagined! The great news is that if you don't love the identity you've created for yourself, you can change it. Listen in to find out how!
