    Fighting For Thankfulness When It Seems Impossible
    Nov 19 2024
    Thankfulness is often a FIGHT. Time to put our boxing gloves on and step into the ring with the enemy. In honor of Thanksgiving right around the corner, join me for a solo episode all about how to fight for thankfulness when gratitude feels impossible. We're talking about how gratitude and grief can coexist, scriptural thankfulness (basing it off of truth, not circumstances), practical ways to flex your "gratitude muscle" and so much more. I just know this short but powerful conversation will leave you with a fresh, heavenly perspective and good news that gratitude is worth the fight. -- OUR SPONSOR: Go to https://www.thrivemarket.com/truthtalks for 30% off your first order, plus a FREE $60 gift! -- Connect with Tara: Instagram / Her book / Her website / Her discount code page / YouTube / The free, email family / Sponsor a child through Compassion Learn more about your ad choices.

    When Doing It All Is Undoing You with Alyssa Bethke
    Oct 15 2024
    My guest and new friend, Alyssa Bethke, and I know what it feels like to unravel from trying to do it all - and I'm guessing you might relate to that feeling too. In a moment of powerful honesty, Alyssa is sharing the moment she realized how harmful "doing it all" was to her life and soul, and how to get back to a place of meeting God in our need. I cherished this episode with Alyssa and loved getting to talk about how to manage overwhelm, *actually* see our mundane as meaningful, encouragement for those feeling overlooked, and some wisdom on soul care and physical care.
