So basic with a little extra!

So basic with a little extra!

By Ana zugheri

So basic! A slang term to refer to someone who is plain, average, or just under the radar. Extra, someone who’s trying too hard! So this is the podcast for people in between, so basic with a little extra!

With my so basic stories about how I try my best to love Jesus, Obey Jesus, and tell everyone about him, I hope to give you a little extra encouragement, a little extra inspiration, or an extra laugh!

Trauma Informed

Trauma Informed

Learn with me! This is a very special episode.  I interviewed Kim Botto on my youtube channel, and the conversation was so good and I learned a lot that is worth sharing. Trauma is real and the more we are informed the better we can help ourselves and others to cope and handle emotions to restore a healthy mind and spirit.
