Is there such a thing as going TOO FAR with caring for our body? Though the church culture can be silent about caring for our body, the world seems to make too much of it. How do you know when you’ve taken it too far and then what do you do about it? Today on the podcast I have an on-air session with Emily who feels like she tends to go TOO FAR when it comes to fitness and exercise, and wants to know how to find the right balance of Soul Care as it relates to nourishing her body. I help her find the source of the “lack of balance” (it’s pretty interesting!) and figure out what to do next today on Talk To Me!

How do you handle rejection? Worse yet, how do you handle rejection from people you hoped to be able to trust? How do you recover from feeling unwanted or unneeded? How do you keep it from becoming part of your beliefs and identity? This week on the podcast I have a powerful on-air session with Alexandra Hoover, and we start putting together the pieces of the puzzle of what caused her to have a vulnerability towards rejection. I help her identify where this came from, and how it might be impacting other parts of her life and ministry. It’s a powerful and emotional conversation, and I believe it will really challenge and bless you in your personal life as well as in your ministry.

Do you have questions you’ve always wanted to ask the opposite sex? When it comes to dating in this generation, it’s inevitable to find yourself wondering what the opposite sex is thinking!

What is your dating mentality? Because what you think effects how you date. Because your mentality is so important when it comes to dating.  It’s really mind over matter. Your thought life impacts your dating life. And sometimes, the thoughts are much more subtle than you realize. I’m so excited to talk more about your dating mentality…and even more excited to have a panel of SINGLES (scroll down to meet them!) joining me for the next few episodes of the podcast in our SINGLES PANEL SERIES. We’re getting into the minds of Christian singles from across the country, asking them all about the dating scene, the single life, and everything you wanted to know about the opposite sex but never wanted to ask over the next three episodes. Today we’re talking about how your MENTALITY impacts how and who you date. It’s a mindset that you bring in with you to dating, and the health of your mindset determines the health of your dating life.  I can’t wait for you to hear this episode, and get to know our singles panel!

Q: I have been caught in a cycle of using porn on again off again for most of my life. I’m truly wanting to break free of this struggle. What advice to you have for me, to help me break free? We’re taking all your questions on our new ASK A COUNSELOR series!! We’re doing this series because I wanted to introduce you to the Counselors from the Debra Fileta Counselors Network and get to know them the way I’m getting to know them! Today’s question comes from Mike from Colorado, who wants to break free from his struggle with pornography.  Porn is everywhere, and the roots of why some people struggle with porn more than others run deep. Because porn use and sexual struggles are a reflection of something deeper — our need for connection. Our sexual struggles are often a reflection of a deeper need to connect in healthy ways. A deeper need to connect with God, self, and others. Today, I tag-team this question with Tony Hasaballa (BOOK A SESSION WITH Tony).  Tony is a pre-licensed counselor on our team, who is passionate about helping men and women heal from the struggle with both porn and/or sexual addictions. Tony talks about how sexual addictions are really an intimacy disorder, and we talk about what it means to get to the deeper issues that fuel our unhealthy and harmful behaviors. It’s such an important episode. So tune in to today’s episode on the Love & Relationships Podcast and follow the show by clicking on the button below!

Q: I have a history of trauma from my past, but I never realized how much I do today stems from what I’ve been through in the past until I started reading Are You Really OK? What are some sings that I have unprocessed trauma from the past I need to deal with? We’re taking all your questions on our new ASK A COUNSELOR series!! We’re doing this series because I wanted to introduce you to the Counselors from the Debra Fileta Counselors Network and get to know them the way I’m getting to know them! Today’s question comes from Ann from Pennsylvania, who wants to know the signs and symptoms that she may have unprocessed trauma in her past that she needs to deal with. In other words, what are some signs you need to DEAL WITH YOUR TRAUMA.  It’s amazing how many people believe that their “personality” or struggles or the way they do things is just who they are — rather than seeing the impacts from the experiences of their past. What you do in your PRESENT is often a result of what you experienced in your PAST. Today, I tag-team this question with Sandy Wilda (BOOK A SESSION WITH Sandy).  Sandy is a trauma specialist, and today she and I talk through the the impacts of trauma, how it can effect your life in the present, some signs that you have unprocessed trauma, as well as how to actually heal from your past. Sandy is an incredible counselor, and I’m so looking forward to you getting to know her today as we talk about signs you need to deal with your trauma.

Q: What are some of the biggest mistakes couples make in conflict? We’re taking all your questions on our new ASK A COUNSELOR series!! We’re doing this series because I wanted to introduce you to the Counselors from the Debra Fileta Counselors Network and get to know them the way I’m getting to know them! Today’s question comes from a woman who wants to know the mistakes we make when it comes to conflict. Conflict in a relationship is inevitable — so how do you deal with it in a healthy way? What are some signs you’re not handling it well? What are some steps to take in the right direction instead? You learn how to manage conflict by default — meaning, you do what you’ve seen done in the past, usually from your family of origin. But sometimes the way it’s been modeled isn’t the healthy way. Today, I tag-team this question with Brad Aldrich (BOOK A SESSION WITH Brad).  Brad and I talk through a few mistakes we see people make in conflict, and then offer you practical advice on what to do instead!! Even if you’re not in a romantic or marriage relationship, this is information you need to know because conflict comes up in all our relationships. And you have to know how to handle it and recognize the mistakes couples make in conflict.

We’re doing this series because I wanted to introduce you to the Counselors from the Debra Fileta Counselors Network and get to know them the way I’m getting to know them! Today’s question comes from a woman who wants to know how to let go of the ruminating about the past — the what ifs. What if it would have been different? What if I said something, did something, tried something different? What if things would have worked out? The list of what ifs is never ending. So how do we deal with them? How can we be set free to move forward?  Today, I tag-team this question with Anna Pavlov (BOOK A SESSION WITH Anna).  Anna and I get to the root of some of the unhealthy underlying thinking that comes with what ifs, teach you how to recognize it, and then what to do about it as well as what to think INSTEAD.
