BONUS Ep 131: Five Steps To Choosing Your Word Or Phrase For The Year with Bianca Juarez Olthoff Dec 11, 2023

Show notes

Are you committed to starting the new year strong? In this bonus episode, I’m sharing my practice of choosing a word or phrase for the year. It's important to end the year strong and set oneself up for a strong new year.

That’s why I will be going through the five steps of choosing a word, which include evaluating the past year, thinking about what is needed in life, creating a list of words, visualizing and refining, and finally, committing to the chosen word. I share my personal example of choosing the word 'whole' for the upcoming year and encourage you to go through the process with me.

Takeaways

Ending the year strong is important for setting oneself up for a strong new year.
Choosing a word or phrase for the year can provide clarity and direction.
The five steps to choosing a word are: evaluate, think, create a list, visualize, and refine and commit.
Commitment to the chosen word is crucial for the practice to be effective.

BONUS Ep 130: Perspective And Attitude Shift To Find Gratitude In Every Season with Melanie Nyema and Bianca Olthoff Nov 20, 2023

Show notes

Has it become difficult for you to be grateful? Are you ready to shift into a positive state of thinking? In this episode, my best friend Melanie Nyema and I chat about the gratitude practice that has positively shifted our attitudes and helped us walk through life in a different way.

We explore:

Finding gratitude in hard times
Strengthening relationships with gratitude
Cultivating a powerful attitude of gratitude

Expressing our gratitude can be difficult at times, but doing so will improve our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Life is full of changes and transitions, and every season has its own beauty and purpose. Why not embrace and enjoy life by celebrating what we currently have and creating positive and meaningful memories with the ones we love.

Share your stories of gratitude or your Gr8tful list by tagging me @BiancaOlthoff and @MelanieNyema. Can’t wait for the next season of the podcast!

BONUS Ep 129: The Power of Giving, Believing in the Impossible, Faith For Women and Girls with Bianca Olthoff Nov 13, 2023

Show notes

Is there a burning desire in your heart to help the less fortunate? Are you ready to sponsor women and girls around the world? I had the privilege of partnering with Convoy of Hope and being part of an event in Puerto Rico to do just that.

We were able to open up the Word of God together and speak to the potential of young girls as individuals. The girls had space and margin to write about their dreams. I too was reminded of my BIG dream:

• Empower young girls and women

• Give back to local communities and churches

• Resource the island to become a hub for the Caribbean

Even though we have not hit the goal yet, we will keep moving towards it. It is our job to believe and it is God’s job to execute it. You can still sponsor a girl for only $25 a year or the amount that God puts in your heart by visiting: convoyofhope.org/bianca

Remember, your dream might seem wildly impossible and you might be disappointed that you have not reached your goal, but know that our God is able and that He is the God of the impossible.

I am grateful for the generous donations of all of you who have already sponsored a girl. Share your stories of hope with us by tagging @BiancaOlthoff and @convoywomen

Love you,
