The Truth About Chasing Dreams and Waiting (Ft. Demi-Leigh Tebow) Sep 04, 2024

Show notes

We spend a lot of time thinking “If I can just get this promotion, win this award, or cure this health issue, then things will be better, happier, or fulfilled.”

But what happens when the achievement we worked for becomes our identity and then ultimately falls away or disappoints?

Or if that dream is delayed or isn't fulfilled at all?

How can we begin to untangle our identity from our achievements and circumstances?

How can we see our platform or skills as a vessel for purpose instead of being our purpose?

In this episode, Jordan talks with Demi Tebow about identity, purpose, perfectionism, and finding purpose amid uncertain seasons.

The danger of tying personal identity to accomplishments and how to untangle your identity from your labels

Getting Back to Natural Beauty in a World of Unrealistic Beauty Standards Aug 28, 2024

Show notes

It's no surprise that our current culture pushes unrealistic expectations of beauty.

From the relentless messaging that we get telling us we need to change our figure, hair, skin, and clothing to the pressure to use extreme beauty treatments or follow the latest trends, the secular view of beauty is hurting us physically and emotionally.

But what does the Bible tell us about beauty? How can you care for your beauty in ways that are not harmful to your body?

What does it look like to steward and care for your beauty and body in a God-honoring way? What does a countercultural approach to beauty look like on a practical level?

That's what this episode explores as Jordan brings you into a conversation about returning to natural beauty in a world of unrealistic (and unhealthy) beauty standards.

Tune in to learn:

What the Bible has to say about beauty
The dangers of modern culture's unrealistic beauty standards
The difference between vanity and honoring our femininity
How to care for our bodies from the inside out first
How to prioritize safer and more natural options for beauty treatments
What it looks like to take a countercultural approach to beauty

Show notes

You are the gatekeeper of your home, which means you can make intentional choices about the products you use and what ingredients you allow in your house.

So what does it look like to take a toxin-freeish approach to choosing safer products? What would it look like if you took intentional steps to choose better ingredients, but also gave yourself grace to enjoy less healthy options?

In this episode, Jordan talks with Wendy Kathryn (AKA wendy_toxinfreeish), a former environmental lawyer turned clean living coach. Together, they talk about how to choose safer products without trying to pursue perfection.
