Deer's Feet: Be Surefooted & Step Into The Light

In this conversation, I interview psychiatrist, and my friend, Dr. Rhonda Williams about mental health and the importance of seeking help. We discuss the balance between physical, emotional, and spiritual health, and the need for connection and community. We also address common myths about depression and anxiety, such as the belief that it will just go away or that it is a character flaw. Dr. Rhonda emphasizes the importance of understanding that mental health disorders are medical disorders and that seeking help is not a sign of weakness. We also discuss the stigma surrounding suicide and the misconception that it is a selfish act. Dr. Williams highlights the importance of checking in with others and offering support. The conversation concludes with a checklist for maintaining overall well-being, including physical activity, a balanced diet, emotional self-awareness, spiritual connection, and social support.

In this conversation, I share another testimony about closed and open doors, highlighting the importance of trusting God no matter what. I recount a time when I quit my job to pursue medical school, however, through a series of unexpected events, including a job offer and the opportunity to care of my niece, I realized that God's plan was different from what I had initially desired. I encourage everyone to trust in God's higher ways and to be grateful for all the doors in your lives.

Feeling invisible? In this episode, I talk about practical ways to feel seen and valued, even in hard times. Combat that feeling of isolation through faith. God sees us in our most painful, difficult seasons, and that's where He refines us - in the fire.

DEBT AND THE “B” WORD: MY TESTIMONY Believing I could literally buy happiness, I accumulated thousand of dollars of debt attempting it. Instead, what I found was despair as I realized my situation, and didn’t see a way out. But God interceded by placing people in my path with advice that both changed my mindset about money, and placed me on the road of debt-free living. Take a listen to my testimony. I hope it encourages you or someone you love. God cares about every aspect of our lives! Grab your FREE Habit Checker here Follow me on social: @deers_feet...
