I help women create ultimate mental & physical wellness through meditating on God's Word to renew our minds, learning how to apply His truths to our lives and taking care of our bodies the way He intends us to. As a grateful believer in Jesus, I encourage women to seek & know God and grow a deeper relationship with Him. I believe we all have a God-shaped hole in our hearts and I want to point you to the only One who can fill it. My love for Jesus & my passion for wellness as a holistic health coach collide in this podcast that shares the gospel, gospel literally means GOOD NEWS! Don’t we need more of that in today’s world? Join me and be encouraged as we chat about God’s love and how to take care of you!

Today my super sweet Canadian friend Shawna Scafe from Simple on Purpose is sharing her testimony! Shawna is such a light in the world and an inspiration to me.
Shawna is a mom of three, practical minimalist, self-professed LadyNerd, and Christian Life Coach for moms.
About seven years ago she left her underwhelming career in Public Health Inspection to stay home with her kids. Which trained her to get very good at sweeping and 'saying no to that face'.
Since then she has been sharing about her (messy but rewarding) decluttering journey, the awakening she had that she was living her life on autopilot, and her endeavors to live her life ON PURPOSE.
This prompted her to write the Life on Purpose Workbook, and Homemaker, on Purpose.
Shawna coaches moms all over the world on issues that keep them stuck. Her mission is to empower women to show up for their actual lives with more peace, purpose and presence.
She believes that we are meant to make choices about what matter to us in life (like quality cheese, simplifying our lives, and being an intentional parent), and that God's grace covers everything.

Friends!!!! I got to interview Bunmi Laditan about her new book, Dear God: Honest prayers to a God who listens.
Bunmi Laditan is an award winning, webby-nominated author. She went viral a few years ago when she created the hilarious Twitter account, The Honest Toddler. She has contributed to The New York Times, Parenting and The Huffington Post, and is best known for the satirical Honest Toddler account and her debut novel, Confessions of a Domestic Failure.
In her new book, Dear God: Honest prayers to a God who listens, Bunmi writes with the same gutsy and poetic honesty that has charmed readers around the world. She's now sharing the faith side of her life with her funny, often heartbreaking and deeply insightful prayers. She will stir your heart and make you laugh out loud with her self-aware humor and profound insight into the spiritual journey we're all trying to navigate.
One day she prayed to a God she wasn't sure even existed and ask "who are you?" and he answered. Reconnecting with the God she loved, then lost, she realized he had never left her side even while she wandered. In this book Bunmi journeys through emotions we all experience: doubt, anger, joy, desperation, love, loneliness and grateful. She exquisitely names our fears, voices our painful questions and bravely says what we're all thinking in our prayerful wrestling with God.
I've followed Bunmi for several years and I truly feel SO seen and affirmed when I read her writing. She speaks to my soul and this new book is no different! I am so grateful she is sharing her journey of faith. I know she is going to connect with so many through this and lead people to Jesus! What a gift. I know you're going to enjoy this interview!
You can pre-order Bunmi's new book anywhere books are sold (a couple of links below) AND you can join the book club, along with me! https://www.bunmiladitan.com/dear-god-book-club
You can follow Bunmi on Facebook at Bunmi Laditan or on Instagram @honesttoddler.

[34] Meditation Monday - Psalm 5:1-3 Cry out to God and WAIT EXPECTANTLY!
Monday Dec 07, 2020
Monday Dec 07, 2020
Listen to my words, Lord, consider my lament. Hear my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice. In the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly. Psalm 5:1-3
Start your mornings talking to your good Father! God provides for us, even if it's not in the way we want or hope for. He always gives us better. When your mind is fresh and free from worry is the best time to talk to God and start your day committed to Him. I challenge you to spend the first few minutes of your day (or longer! God is worthy of all of our time) with God. Talk to Him, cry to Him, praise Him.
