Episode 28 - The Unhealthy Fight to be Right

It’s time to re-examine what it means to win. Because winning in life doesn’t equal losing in relationship. If you would like to have conversations that stretch you to love bigger, rather than pump you up to win arguments,and keep your opinion on steroids, then this episode just may spark some ideas for change. Why do we feel such a need to...defend ourselves? blame others? prioritize problems over relationships? prove people wrong who don't think like us?

I believe we have the ability to turn our competition into compassion. ut first we have to see the need. And in order to see the need, we have to get past the ridiculous preoccupation with self. Is anybody with me? Do you have a conviction that we really better than this? If so, please join me today Around the Table. We are going to talk about how to change some things, so we can see some things change. I look forward to being Around the Table with you.

Episode 27 Show Notes: Take a Pause

The world is a lot right now. A lot of pain. A lot of fear. A lot of anger, confusion, and accusation. A lot of misunderstanding. A lot of violence. A lot of hate. So what do we do about that? The temptation is to disengage. Or attack. Neither seems the answer. How do we make an impact? A positive difference? Is it even possible? I believe it is, if we go where our hearts lead us. Where the God that lives in us guides us. With love. And wisdom. Where we are faithful to what is in front of us. And detach from the outcomes we can’t control. So that they don’t control us. Take a deep breath. Step back. Just pause. As you do, focus your intentions to: Get in the right heart and head space. Check your internal world for courage, humility, authenticity, integrity and respect. Engage with love and wisdom as you charge forward. I look forward to being Around the Table with you today. Enjoy the journey!

Episode 26: Your Dreams Mean Something

We all dream.

Some of us remember our dreams in vivid detail.

Some barely remember having a dream at all.

But we all dream.

This episode shares a dream I had last year, in July of 2024, that is still just as important and impactful as it was then. It had a message for me, but it also has a message for you.

I want to share this dream for two reasons.

First, I want you to see how to analyze different parts of a dream to help you think about:

• What messages you might be receiving through your dreams
• The importance of what specific objects/colors/people in your dreams represent
• What you might receive from other people’s dreams (in this instance...mine)

Second, I want to share how the message of this dream applies to us all, not just me.

The message of this specific dream conveys:

• The importance of an invitation
• The power of listening hearts
• The effectiveness of pure motives
• The impact potential of each person

I hope you will join me Around the Table as we talk about our dreams and the wonderful insights they can bring when we take the time to intentionally decipher them.

Enjoy the journey of discovery!

With love,

Brenda
