Show Notes:
"Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell." James 3:4-6 New King James Version (NKJV)
"Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things." Philippians 4:8 NKJV
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9 NKJV
"For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more." Hebrews 8:12 NKJV
"then He adds, 'Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.'" Hebrews 10:17 NKJV
"I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins." Isaiah 43:25 NKJV
"Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NKJV

The Freedom Experience - Interview with Patrick Jaiyeoba
Today I interviewed Patrick Jaiyeoba, a trained and certified Minister of Deliverance, Emotional and Physical Healing by Global Awakening College of Ministry. He currently serves on the pastoral team at the CityLight International Church where he is the Asst. Director of Small Groups and a co-host of Sunday services. He also hosts a podcast called “The freedom Reality”, where he teaches and converses with reputable Christian leaders on freedom in Christ. We spoke about how in forgiving his father, he had to go through emotional healing, which brought up things from his childhood that were long buried. This is an interview that must be heard!

Therapist Abuse - Interview with Amy Nordhues
Good Morning! Today, I interviewed Amy Nordhues, Author of Prayed Upon: Breaking Free from Therapist Abuse. Amy has gone from victim to thriving child of God. Her story is one in which she escapes from the abuse of a respected, church-going psychiatrist. She asked for help with depression, but instead of providing healing, this psychiatrist leads her down a path of deception and betrayal. His office, which initially feels like a sanctuary, becomes a psychological prison, one from which Amy will have to fight to free herself. This is an episode you do not want to miss!!

The Story of Redemption and Forgiveness - An Interview with The Loves
Good Morning everyone! I have a special treat for you all today! I interviewed Bobby and Cheryl Love! If you know who they are (even if you don't) they went viral for their story on the Humans of New York Instagram account. Bobby had his first run ins with the law at thirteen, by his early twenties he was a master thief with a serious criminal record and then he was slapped with a thirty year prison sentence! Yet even with good behavior, making parole and regaining his freedom weren't guaranteed so he made a plan. He jumped off the back of a prison bus in North Carolina transporting him to do roadwork, escaped on foot to a bus station, fled to New York and reinvented his life. It wasn't until decades later when he was married and had kids that the FBI and NYPD caught up to him! When I tell you his story is amazing... IT. IS. AMAZING!!!!!

I Had to Grieve My Expectations - Interview with Crystal Currie
Hello everybody! I was going to drop this episode on Monday, but it was SO GOOD that I HAD to drop this episode! Today, I had the pleasure of interviewing Crystal Currie a licensed clinical mental health professional and founder of Compass Life Skills & Counseling. As an Emotional Wellness Specialist, Crystal finds herself continuously inspired by human resilience as she gets to witness her clients’ abilities to uncover strengths they did not know they had. Crystal has dealt with demons of her own, from being born to teen parents (14 and 15 years old) to grieving the loss of her alive mother. Today, she helps clients just like her past self to let go of toxic relationships and finally live a peaceful and happy life. She comes to us telling her story of how she forgave both her parents and how she had to grieve her expectations of what she wanted her mother to be... This was too good! Plus I wanted you all to have time to get access to her "Healing The Inner Child" Retreat on October 30, 2021.

"“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath," Ephesians 4:26 NKJV

"Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." 2 Corinthians 5:18-19 & 21

Forgiveness of Self is a Daily Thing....
Forgiving yourself is something we all have to practice, myself included... Come listen to this episode where I tell 2 stories that happen to me recently where I had to forgive myself: I was involved in a car accident with my son in the back seat AND where I got scammed out of $3500. This episode is a must listen!
Show Notes:
"And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me." 2 Corinthians 12:9 New King James Version (NKJV)
I said God will not give you more than you can bear, and I was referring to 1 Corinthians 10:13 NKJV, however I believe I used it out of context, but I will put the verse anyway: "No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it."
"Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath," Ephesians 4:26 NKJV
"This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24 NKJV
"The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." John 10:10 NKJV
"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am [a]gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”" Matthew 11:28-30

I Got It From My Father - Interview with Stephanie Martinez
Today, I interviewed my good friend Stephanie Martinez a New York native, now living in the sunshine state where she learned how to go from a sad girl, to a resilient woman. She came today with a story about forgiving her ex-husband. She saw how her father was a forgiving man, and since he was the example she was able to forgive those who hurt her. This is an episode that is a must listen! Also, please leave us a 5 star written review on iTunes, it helps the podcast get more reach.
Stephanie Martinez:

Show Notes:
When Stephanie mentioned that she "fell short", that came from Romans 3:23 New King James Version (NKJV) which says: "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"
"Don’t be fooled by those who say such things, for “bad company corrupts good character." 1 Corinthians 15:33 New Living Translation (NLT)
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?" Matthew 5:43-47 NKJV

Mother's Day Message
Hey all! I came on here to say that there would be no new episode, however, God did give me a message to give to you all! It's funny how that works right? Love your mom, appreciate her and celebrate her not just on Mother's Day but everyday! For those who do not have a great relationship or any relationship with their mother, ask God to give you the strength and wisdom to forgive and ask Him to help you let that pain, anger, unforgiveness go. Who knows? God may restore the relationship! You never know...
Show Notes:
Matthew 11:28-30 "Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”" New Living Translation
Philippians4:6-7 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." New King James Version

Forgiveness in Marriage with Monique Rodriguez (LGPC)
IT'S A NEW SEASON!!! I am soooo excited!!! To kick off this new season I wanted to do a series called "Forgiveness in Marriage" and I had the pleasure of interviewing Monique Rodriguez! Monique is a Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor (LPGC) who works with adults, teenagers, pre-teens and children who makes clients not only feel comfortable engaging in therapy but feel safe enough to explore parts of themselves, they would otherwise not feel comfortable. I wanted to get her professional opinion on what she has seen and heard when it comes to married couples in forgiveness and unforgiveness.
