It’s Not a Period, It’s a Pivot with Elyse Murphy

We all talk about “Cancel Culture” but have we confronted the fact that we all participate in some form? Responding to hate with more hate in the comments, liking mean-spirited posts, or laughing at the latest “social media dragging” are a few examples. How do we turn it all around for good? Here to shed light and a newfound perspective is Brittany Dawn, Founder of She Lives Freed and Chiseled and Called Podcast. Ultimately Brittany has walked through the fire of social media bullying and come out not smelling like smoke.  Her newfound intimacy with God and focus on his purpose is to blame in the best way and it’s helped her respond the bullies without becoming a bully herself  in the process… something we could all learn from.Through her vulnerability she invites us all to lay down our armor, confront our skeletons and remember to treat each other with the grace, sincere compassion and a very healthy dose of boundaries. It’s hard work, but it’s good work. This is a conversation that will leave you feeling genuinely uplifted comforted and hopefully inspired to look at the people we encounter with a heavenly perspective.

Living on the Tightrope of Cancel Culture with Brittany Dawn

Does checking your bank account give you anxiety? Do you feel hopeless about paying off mountains of student loan or credit card debt? Finances are often the trigger for anxiety and hopelessness in so many people today especially in America where 78% are living paycheck to paycheck. But here to dispel anxiety and fuel us with powerful truth is Financial Expert and bestselling author Rachel Cruze. We all need more education and grace when it comes to our finances.  Rachel is all about equipping everyday people and especially empowering women to take ownership of their financial life to find freedom. The Bible says the love of money is the root of all evil — it does not say the stewardship of money is. We are breaking off the shame that comes with money mistakes and embracing the power of kingdom stewardship. Knowledge is literally power and in this case money.
