Season 3: Episode 34: A story about the name of our podcast

We are changing things up today! Instead of an interview this week, we are keeping things short and sweet!  Julie Faerber is the middle of moving 50 minutes away and is half in one apartment and half in another.  Between the move and problems with the new internet connection, today we are sharing the story of the origin of the name of our podcast and the meaning that it holds for us.  We hope you love it as much as we do and we will be back to our normal format next week.
 
 

Season 3 Episode 33: Perspective mind moment

Hello!  We decided to dive a little deeper into perspective and how being open to exploring different perspectives can benefit multiple aspects of our lives.  Talking to Dallin last week was such a morale boost for us and we really enjoyed being able to take a more positive topic for this week's mind moment.  We hope you enjoy it too!  Remember to download and please reach out to us if you're feeling courageous and want to share part of your journey.  You can reach us on Facebook and Instagram or email us at ycjpodcast@gmail.com.

Season 3: Episode 32: A story about finding peace using perspective

Today we are sharing with you an interview with Dallin.  Dallin shares his unique family situation, how it evolved over the last 30 years, and how he came to make the best of an awkward situation.  We are so impressed with Dallin's positive mindset and his desire to help other people. We hope you enjoy his positive vibes as much as we did. As always thanks for tuning in and please reach out to us if you have a story to share or know someone who does, at ycjpodcast@gmail.com

We're so excited to be back!  Happy Season 3 everybody!

Season 2 Episode 29: The Julies Update

As we wrap up this season, we decided to give a little update on what's been going on with the Julies this season.  Next week will be the last episode for this season.  We will be taking April off but will be back in May for season three!  We have absolutely loved doing this podcast and we appreciate so much the people who have been willing to share their stories with us. 

Season 2 Episode 28: Mind Moment - Fear

In last weeks interview with Stella, we heard all about a scary situation and how Stella was able to face her fear and grow from it.  In this weeks episode we dive into the topic of fear.  Fear is one of our most basic and universal emotions.  Listen in to take a deep dive all about fear.  What is fear?  Why do we experience fear?  What are some common fears and phobias?  Learn more about how to deal with your fear and how to support kids who are experiencing fear.  

Season 2 Episode 27: A story about being brave in a sudden health scare

I'm so excited about this week's interview.  The Julies actually talked about and were prepared to do a very different episode, but then Julie Sickle's youngest Stella said she wanted to come on and talk to us!  She had a recent experience that landed her in the ER.  She tells us all about it and some of the things she learned about it.  I love her bravery, not only in the moment, but also to share her story with us.  It's a great one and we hope you enjoy!

Season 2 Episode 26: Mind moment - Mindfulness

After talking to Todd about his life altering experience of losing his wife, grief seemed to be a pretty obvious choice for mind moment. But the Julies have been working on mindfulness and meditation the last few weeks and realized that this topic applies well to Todd's interview.  Mindfulness goes beyond mediation and we can use it daily to benefit our physical and mental health.  As always, if you have any questions or want to know more about the mindfulness program we are doing, you can reach out to us on social media (Facebook and Instagram) at Your Courageous Journey or email us at ycjpodcast@gmail.com.

Season 2 Episode 25: A story about picking up the pieces after a life shattering tragedy

Being a ride share driver has allowed to me (Julie Faerber) to meet people from all walks of life. Some of them even open up to me about some significant events in their lives. This week's episode is with our new friend Todd Wangsgard. He was one of those passengers I was blessed with who was willing to share a very difficult part of his life's story with me.  In our interview, he explains how life has been since the sudden passing of his wife just a few years ago. We know grief is such a complicated and long journey. Everyone grieves differently and Todd's faith continues to help get him through each day.
