Health Quest and Faithful Love Weaving Marital Bliss
Spirit, Soul and Body Health that Transforms Family
Guests: Sam & Norma Bart-Williams
As we gathered around the mic with Sam and Norma Bart-Williams, their laughter and shared glances told a story that's spanned over three decades. Their remarkable saga, filled with faith, love, and a shared dedication to their careers and each other, unfolded in our latest episode. They divulged the significance of God's presence in every slice of their lives, from parenting to their professional endeavors. Their tales of migrating to the U.S., mastering the art of pickleball, and seeking divine guidance each day truly reveal the fabric that has kept their union strong and resilient.
Embarking on a health odyssey, Sam draws from his rich background in engineering and tech to unravel the complexities that lie beneath various health concerns. The discussion ventures beyond symptoms to the root causes that often go unnoticed. Our conversation is laden with anecdotes connecting the dots between stress, lifestyle, and overlooked factors like vitamin D deficiency. Prepare to discover how a holistic approach to wellness, embracing the body-soul-spirit nexus, could empower you on your journey to optimal health.
Ending on a note of profound transformation, we uncover how divine love can dramatically deepen marital connections. I open up about my own epiphanies in learning to accept God's love, which in turn enriched my ability to love my wife with a newfound depth. Together, Trisha and I unravel insights and wisdom for couples yearning to strengthen their bonds. We invite you to join our community, not just as listeners but as contributors, by suggesting topics close to your heart for future episodes that aim to nurture and celebrate the sanctity of marriage.
