Hope

Episode 14 - Hope

“Don’t get your hopes up”. That’s a phrase some of us might be familiar with. We use it often, not because we don’t like having hope, but because we don’t like being disappointed or let down. However, we shouldn’t let our desire to shield ourselves from disappointment keep us from the great experience of having hope in the waiting and seeing what we have hoped for come to be.

In this episode, we look at hope from all the angles and explore the effects it can have on our everyday lives. We look at why hope is so essential to living a full life, how to tip the scales more towards the positive experiences, hope in community and so much more.

Episode 11 - Gratitude (Part 2) - Presence

It can be really tough to find anything to be grateful for when we are in the midst of a storm of life. When everything that happens feels like another weight has been added on our backs, those times especially are when gratitude boosts are most welcome. The good news is, we can all get those boosts. Join me as we continue to explore the fullness that genuine gratitude adds to our lives and much more. And also see how we can set ourselves up to be grateful in the future for the choices we make today.

Episode 10 - Gratitude (Part 1) - Vision

It isn’t easy to describe exactly what it feels like, but I get the sense that gratitude is linked to restored hope and strength. It is what we experience right after we receive a great act of kindness, for example, and I’m sure we all want more of that in our lives. Our lives are influenced significantly by what we see and for most of us, those moments of gratitude are rare events. But they don’t have to be. We can have moments of gratitude as part of our everyday lives. Join me as we explore how what we see with our eyes and focus on in our hearts can help enrich our lives.
