292: Working from Rest, Breaking the Deficit Mindset, and What Real Balance Is (feat. Touré Roberts) May 04, 2022

Show notes

In a lot of ways, I think the idea of balance—managing the weight of the various areas of life—is a bit of a fallacy. So where does life balance begin? That's where our conversation is headed today with bestselling author, Touré Roberts. Touré's own experiences with overwhelm really qualify him to get under the hood of what balance really is, how to work from rest (not for rest), and also how to break a deficit mindset in your life.

291: The Fight for Rest and Why Struggle is Necessary for Growth (feat. Ben Stuart) Apr 27, 2022

Show notes

According to today's guest, Ben Stuart, the pastor of Passion City Church in Washington D.C., a lot of us underestimate the complexity of what's happening beneath the surface in our soul and spirit and then never find peace and victory that's sustainable. That's why he argues that we must fight for rest and why struggle in life is so necessary for our development. For Ben, this struggle, this fight, was true when he had to lay face down and lived sick each day because of the side effects of the medications after major back surgery. And it took a toll on his emotional health. You'll hear more about that and more in today's conversation with Ben Stuart. If you enjoy this episode with Ben, I'm sure you'll also enjoy:

Show notes

This week, my good friend, Jordan Lee Dooley is here to talk about how she and her husband, Matt, have navigated unmet expectations, deferred hope, health crises, and what happened when she found herself in a place of reevaluating everything in her life.
