27. Being a Wise Woman in a War Zone with Karen Young

How do these Wise Woman skills of soulful alignment and having oil in our lamps apply when you find yourself in a war zone? Back in December I did a podcast with Karen Young, a friend and mentor who was living as a missionary in Qatar. Karen and her husband Rob are mentors for me of both saying yes to God in our lives and living together with vibrant interdependence as a husband and wife. This week in coaching Karen shared her experience with me about the war breaking out in the Middle East and being evacuated to Morocco. Her insights were powerful, and she gave permission to share it so we can all learn from her experience and reflect on what it means to be a Wise Woman in a war zone. 00:00 War Begins in Doha 02:11 Alarms and Shelter Routine 03:41 Ordered to Evacuate 07:27 Tears on the Way Out 10:34 Oil in the Lamp Resilience 16:31 Signs of the Times 21:24 Leaving Heart in Doha 23:06 Equanimity Means Crying

26. Meditation as a Way to Be with Jesus with Shauna Norton

Emily interviews Shauna Norton, a meditation mentor and creator of the Refill My Soul app. They discuss using gospel-centered meditation to find peace and to connect with Jesus Christ when life doesn’t go according to plan. Shauna shares her experiences with unexpected “Plan B” turns, divorce and remarriage, and how a prompting led her to create meditations based on Christ’s teachings when she couldn’t find any. They discuss meditation as a way of being present like the Savior, setting intentions to ask, seek, and knock for revelation, and using breathwork to calm the nervous system. Shauna teaches that God offers assurances, shares examples of receiving them, and describes recognizing “divine signatures.” This episode concludes with a guided meditation by Shauna about Jesus Christ.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
