Week 23: The Most Important Thing to Look for in a Best Friend [Loveable 024] Apr 10, 2018

Show notes

“Belonging is built on bravery.” Most of us, when we are looking for someone to belong to—whether in marriage or friendship or anywhere else—look for someone who seems either perfect, or a perfect fit. Neither exist. In Episode 24 of The Loveable Podcast we explore what else we might look for in our relationships. Hint: it […]

Week 21: Finding the Fear Underneath All the Fury [Loveable 022] Mar 20, 2018

Show notes

“Anger isn’t an inherently bad thing. Anger becomes a destructive thing when we allow it to become a reactive thing instead of harnessing it as a guiding thing.” In Episode 21 of The Loveable Podcast, we focus on what to do with the anger around us and the anger within us. How do we know when […]

Week 20: What to Do with Your Walls [Loveable 021] Mar 12, 2018

Show notes

“Walls are everywhere in our world…We build them so big they are the only things we create that can be seen from space. It’s like we’re advertising to the universe, ‘Walls matter on this big, spinning rock!’ But perhaps the biggest walls, the most important walls, are the ones that cannot be seen at all…the […]

Week 19: From Limping Lonely to Loving Together [Loveable 020] Mar 06, 2018

Show notes

There are two kinds of loneliness. The first kind is a natural and inevitable part of being human—it exists because you exist. The second kind of loneliness, however, is a loneliness of our own creation. And that’s good news, because if we can create it, we can also uncreate it. In Episode 20 of The […]

Week 18: A Kid Named Lonely [Loveable 019] Feb 27, 2018

Show notes

“Places of belonging are not meant to be places where our loneliness is taken away. They are meant to be places where we reveal our loneliness to one another…Once you have made your loneliness available to one of your people, you will no longer need to eradicate it. You will be able to touch it without fear and […]

Week 17: The One Illusion We Cannot Afford to Believe In [Loveable 018] Feb 20, 2018

Show notes

“Experiencing our worthiness does not lead us to believe we are self-sufficient; it helps us to be at peace with the knowledge that we are insufficient. We are interconnected. Interdependent. As big as a limitless soul, but as small and as fragile as a human body.” In Episode 18 of The Loveable Podcast, we focus […]

Week 16: The Fear (and Joy) of Removing the Masks We Wear [Loveable 017] Feb 13, 2018

Show notes

“Grace is what happens when someone or Someone sees through our many masks, recognizing and celebrating the innocent little one that still resides beneath all of our disguises…Grace is the assurance that everyone is of equal value and equally worthy, so all you have to do to be loved is show up.” In Episode 17 […]

Week 15: The Mess Will Set You Free! [Loveable 016] Feb 06, 2018

Show notes

“Ann Lamott once wrote, ‘The grace of age is radical self-acceptance.’ Life is messy and we human creatures are messy. Life isn’t about eliminating the mess; it’s about embracing the mess.” In Episode 16 of The Loveable Podcast, we focus on accepting our messy selves by first accepting the chaos of everyday living. It’s fun […]

Week 14: The Life-Changing Difference Between Shame and Guilt [Loveable 015] Jan 30, 2018

Show notes

“Guilt is shame redeemed by grace. Shame tells us we are lousy; guilt tells us we did something lousy. Shame whispers, “Your mistakes define you,” but guilt proclaims, “We are defined by redemption, not by transgression.” In Episode 15 of The Loveable Podcast, we are focusing on clarifying the difference between shame and guilt, because it is the difference between […]
