season 1: “an introspective / overwintering”

scott kreider: "airwaves: how to stay tuned in to a spirit on the move"

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2261134/open_sms] with my friend scott (who has years under his belt in law), you have to put the lawyer jokes aside…cause if there’s one thing that makes him stand out from the usual bunch (or more so the lawyer stereotype), it’s the amount of heart he brings to the table. i’ve always walked away from conversation with scott feeling enlightened & this one is no exception! we deep dive aspects of scott’s life that play into his uncanny ability to pick up on people/vibes, his “better call saul” origin story, if you will (😉) & what it means to truly walk in the spirit.  i think we in the faith realm have a tendency to overcomplicate, well, everything…but, what if walking in the spirit simply looked like interacting with the world presented in front of us by being present to it? period. 💛 Support the show [https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thewildflowerspodcast] any & all support is so so appreciated! peace. -will follow the wildflowers podcast over on instagram [https://www.instagram.com/thewildflowers_podcast/] intro music by yours truly at the young band [https://songwhip.com/theyoungband]

taylor logsdon: "roots: a life, a death & being born again"

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2261134/open_sms] life is a process. & yet, somehow, so is death. everyday we live, we exist in the tension between the two…for every breath, we die a little more. poets, theologians, songwriters, philosophers of every sort alike have tried to put words to this experience that we all know deep in our very bones.  & still, there is so much unknown & so many questions to be asked. i think of child loss…for me, having had lost our firstborn oliver at just 2 days old, it came as a shock (to put it lightly) when not even a year and a half after our loss we got the call that our good friend taylor had lost her sweet little boy elijah—who was only 5 at the time—in a car accident. 💔 this is not an easy one…in this episode, nearly 5 years after her loss, taylor & i discuss her story. taylor so graciously & bravely retreads her life, from growing up, working through faith & doubts alongside jesus, having a little boy enter her life & dramatically change it, his traumatic exit from this earth & the journey to get to where she is now. there is such a beauty here in taylor’s story…one of roots put down to hold firm. one of life, death & even of rebirth.  a word: loss. it’s a touchy subject for many. whether you have or not (yet), it is something we will ALL have to become familiar with. if you’ve lost, i see you & i am so sorry for your loss…& if you haven’t, let this episode give you insight to those around you who have…lead with love. listen. & be. 💛 Support the show [https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thewildflowerspodcast] any & all support is so so appreciated! peace. -will follow the wildflowers podcast over on instagram [https://www.instagram.com/thewildflowers_podcast/] intro music by yours truly at the young band [https://songwhip.com/theyoungband]

ian gjertson: “as iron sharpens iron: the gift of encouragement”

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2261134/open_sms] ya know, sometimes for the sake of reminiscing, it’s easy to get lost in nostalgia or looking back on days passed as “the glory days..." however, rarely has that been the case when i look back at the last half of my life in light of one of my closest & best friends, because though the past (with so many good times!) has given context, our present tense friendship has always been in focus. 👀 ian & i are like brothers. we’ve been friends since we were around 15 (like, just babies lol) & we have changed & grown. A LOT! but, over time one thing is consistent about ian: he has a genuine heart for the people around him & is such an encouraging dude. encouragement bleeds out of him everywhere he goes, from his home to his work place to his church to every relationship he has...& i’m so thankful to be one of those people in his life! if you’ve seen a void, in your own life or the people/environments around you (not enough kindness, honesty, etc.), then FILL IT. it's showing up to YOU for a reason. i hope this one can be an encouragement on your journey. 💛 Support the show [https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thewildflowerspodcast] any & all support is so so appreciated! peace. -will follow the wildflowers podcast over on instagram [https://www.instagram.com/thewildflowers_podcast/] intro music by yours truly at the young band [https://songwhip.com/theyoungband]
