Hope you've grabbed your coffee this morning! Episode 5 is about my favorite place to get coffee. In this episode, I sit down with Dusty Keene in Common Grounds and he gives me a little history of the place and we talk about what makes Common Grounds so special! We talk about the evolution of the place and some exciting things to look forward to. From the local goods displayed throughout the place to the one of a kind blend that can only be found in this coffee shop. Common Grounds is a place for everyone as well as as every animal it seems! Local Businesses are the heart of any community in my opinion and I hope to highlight some of the local places that I stumble upon and get us all on the local business train.

NO LONGER accept the things we can not change.......within reason? A conversation with Abby

Abby wanted to interview me......and this is basically what happened.
Abby is simply what I can only describe as a breath of fresh air! In this episode we dive into my story a bit more.....because Abbie is just like me, full of questions. We broach the subject of childhood identity crisis's, political correctness, white privilege, racial unity, authenticity, generational patterns, what can white people do better and the constant theme throughout the entirety of the episode, laughing at the hypocrisy. This episode was such a blast to record and it was one where there wasn't any plan except let's talk and record it. Enjoy this painfully hilarious perspective from two people who simply refuse to allow it to continue.
Much love

Christians: Love or Hate? w/ Rachel Sprague

It's no secret that Christianity is the most controversial religion there is in North America. What is the Church doing well and what are some points to critically analyze as we look at this religion? In the current climate of the world how is being a Christian something you have to Love or Hate? What can we do better as warriors for Jesus? Are Christians loving more than they are hating? Why is religion something that people have a hard time talking about and how can we speak to people who don't share the same beliefs? There was a lot more to uncover and there is so much more controversy than we got to ,but what is going on with God's church? Why is the Church so quiet? Rachel and I sat down and started a very special conversation about the Church as two women who just do their best to Love God and love our neighbors. She broke down the anthropological definition of racism and how we misunderstand that definition of that word. We dove into boundaries, safe spaces and racial divisions......all the while laughing at the span of the things that divide us as humans ,but even more so as Christ Followers, we offer some solutions and hope anyone regardless of their background can share with us in this uncomfortable conversation!
Much Love!
