 Episode 101 Dating Do's and Don'ts: How Modern Romance Has Evolved *Originally discussed on my podcast episode with Nicki* Dating has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past few decades. What once were hard-and-fast rules have given way to a more fluid, technology-driven landscape that would be virtually unrecognizable to someone from even 20 years ago. In our recent podcast conversation, Nicki and I dove deep into how the do's and don'ts of dating have shifted, and honestly, some of the changes are pretty shocking. The Old Rules vs. The New Reality Then: Wait Three Days to Call The Old Don't: Never call someone immediately after a date. Wait exactly three days to show you're not desperate. Now: Immediate communication is not only acceptable but expected. In fact, not texting within a few hours might signal disinterest. The "three-day rule" has been replaced by the "three-hour anxiety window" where silence breeds overthinking. Th...

Episode 83 What a journey it must be to live in another country and adapt. I've done a missions trip with my church before but I have never lived in another country while also trying to spread the good news of God. I think the most important things to note about this life is that you have to Shine your light as brightly as you can even if you aren't preaching to people every day.  Some things I've learned through talking with Rachel and her experience. Life as a missionary in Malawi, Africa, unfolds as a profound journey of cultural immersion, spiritual growth, and service to others. From the moment one arrives in this vibrant nation, the kaleidoscope of colors, sounds, and smells immediately envelops the senses, offering a rich tapestry of experiences unlike any other. In the bustling cities and remote villages alike, missionaries find themselves welcomed with open arms by communities eager to share their traditions, stories, and way of life. Yet, amid the beauty and warmt...

Episode 72 In this episode, talking about healthy jobs versus unhealthy jobs makes you think about the type of field you are in. You wouldn't think that a job is necessarily unhealthy until you either experience it or have a friend or family member who can tell you about it. You wouldn't think a harmless job being behind a desk for 40 hours a week is unhealthy because you aren't doing anything that's deemed unhealthy. But would you believe that sitting around all day is in fact unhealthy? I know I didn't think so until I got into this habit of being at desk everyday would do to me. I don't feel very active and I can easily sit there constantly on my computer checking on things for the job.  After reading both articles about which jobs are healthy and which aren't I've come to this conclusion this is an excerpt for the closer to the end of the show: "I think the main idea about these jobs, although it was funny to read that a florist job can be both ...

Episode 62 So I definitely noticed in most tv shows the commonality of couples that get together are based on their work place relationships. And it dawned on me that it was weird that couples that we claim are ENDGAME were only together because they were thrust together via the workplace. While in my own dating life, I have only dated maybe a couple of guys based on being around them while at work. It seemed so common based on the shows I watched. But in reality, my friends, the parents of my friends, people in my groups and communities DID NOT date, have a relationship or get married and also worked together. Instead they met in various ways and kept the workplace separate. Unless one of the persons in the relationship owned a business and their partner would work with them that is completely different. My point is that majority of the shows I watch featured couples getting together based on proximity. Here's the list below of the ones from Tv. Tv Show Couples: Derek & Mered...

This episode is super short. I recorded it on the spot and with my friends while on vacation just for fun. I didn't edit it nor did I plan for it. It was just something to do while I had the time and internet to do so.  Everyone should take a well deserved vacation when they can and as many as they can. We are not machines we are humans who were made to enjoy life and all it has to offer.  We are not meant to work hard all the time, we need to be free to have a good time for as long a time as we can.  Have fun, live free, and enjoy it!
