Welcome to episode 183 with Katy Joy Wells! Katy is a decluttering coach who took her holistic training and used it to help women declutter their lives. This is a fantastic episode about what clutter does to our brain, the traps we commonly fall into that keep us holding on to an extra mason jar, the scrap bag of fabrics, or the almost empty pens "just in case" or "for an emergency." For Katy, her life started changing when she realised the clutter around the house was holding her back from being present for her kids. What are the extra things in your home holding you back from? Or maybe its not holding you back, but it's adding an extra level of noise or stress or demands to your already full plate. This episode was practical, giving you small steps you can use right now to start cutting back on spending, moving stuff out of your home that is keeping you trapped cleaning, or giving you permission to let go of belongings as part of your identity or a way you cope.

Welcome to episode 208 with Carl and Laura Lentz, the former pastors of Hillsong New York. Their story made headlines in 2020, but it was the beginning and not the end. The Lentzes' story is an incredible redemption arc of surrender, choosing wholehearted redemption, forgiveness, and returning Jesus to the center, rather than hiding in shame, reaction, or bitterness. In everything we do, Christ is the foundation: for our children, our communities, our lives, and the Kingdom of God. In an era of divorce and choosing personal happiness over the marriage covenant, this episode is an important reminder of healing and discovering the reward of a love that lasts.
