Ep. 12- #LIFE- The Global Good-Mexico- Guests: Frank & Deborah Verdin
16 JAN 2021 · We’re back! And this time around we’re heading to a country that is close to my heart, because growing up, I lived just north of the border.
Meet Frank & Deborah Verdin. I just had the opportunity to come alongside them in Mexico as they didn’t just share about Jesus but were living out pure religion- taking care of those living in the landfill, and practically meeting the needs of the people.
It may come as a surprise to know that currently, lockdown looks strikingly similar on both sides of the border, it may even be a little stricter in Mexico.
Currently on “red light restrictions”, temperature checks and shoe cleaning are required at grocery stores, and schools and churches are not meeting in person. Thankfully factories are remaining open and people are still able to work.
Join Frank and Deborah as they share a little bit of their journey over the past year.
Episode 11- #L I F E - The Global Good- Australia- Guests: Aaron & Katie McKillop
27 AUG 2020 · Transitioning back to our COVID-19 interviews with people from around the world, I think it’s ever so fitting to check back in with our very first guest- Katie McKillop. This time however we get to hear from her husband Aaron too!
In Melbourne, where they live, extreme lockdown measures have gone back into place as COVID cases have spiked.
Aaron & Katie keep it real as they share their personal journeys with mental health, confronting depression, and putting language to emotions that we experience.
We’re also reminded that hope is something we desperately need to cling to and are given practical steps to do so.
I’m so thankful for these two and am excited for you to hear their story.
Episode 10- A Necessary Conversation (Part 2) - USA- Guests: Alexandra Yarborough & Jenae Switzer
15 AUG 2020 · We're breaking from our global COVID-19 interviews to continue a necessary conversation that we left off with- racism.
.
.
News headlines & focal points of conversation constantly shift and change & as a result it’s so easy to move on from an important topic when it still exists.
.
.
Alex also has a story, and when speaking of the black community she reminds us, “we all don’t have the same experiences… I don’t know what your life is like and I can’t understand what that would feel like or what your challenges are or what your pain is if I don’t actually have a real conversation with you…”
I met Jenae & Alex years ago at an event for a magazine. We immediately connected as our dreams & creative inclinations overlapped.
.
.
Recently, Jenae and I were talking and the two of us agreed, we wanted to have a conversation with Alex and ask her about her story & encounters with racism. We had never thought to do that before, and this conversation was the first time we heard it. So here it is.

Episode 9- The Global Good- A Necessary Conversation- Guest: Ingrid Yolanda
24 JUN 2020 · We're taking a break from our global COVID-19 interviews to have a necessary conversation on racism that is especially important right now in the USA. Ingrid Yolanda made room in her schedule to sit down and have an honest conversation on this topic and I asked if she would come on my podcast, and continue the conversation with all of you.
You may be wondering, "What can I do?". Ingrid answers this question, and possibly some others that may be unspoken within.
Ingrid made a beautiful statement, "To see from my lens is to see me from the inside out... that's how relationships should be built amongst all people...your story is beyond your shell".

19 MAY 2020 · Episode 7- #L I F E - The Global Good- Scotland- Guest: Amanda Savory by Lauren Michelle Dowler
Episode 6- The Global Good- South Africa- Guests: Kevin & Tonya Stanfield
14 MAY 2020 · All the way from South Africa, Kevin & Tonya Stanfield have been raising up leaders amongst marginalized people and unreached people groups for nearly 13 years. They have no desire to be labeled heroes, but rather to empower and equip the heroes.
While the government of SA is doing an incredible job at getting food to the starving in their nation, there are still those that are falling between the cracks. Kevin, Tonya, and their amazing team have not only recognized these needs but have taken action!
Episode 5- The Global Good- USA- Guest: Michelle Ehl
6 MAY 2020 · Today we’re shifting gears a little to talk about the impact that COVID-19 has had on the sphere of education. 📚 It’s an absolute treat to interview the English department head of a high school in San Diego, and one of my nearest and dearest, Michelle Ehl!
Not only is Michelle a teacher, but she’s also a parent. She defines what she calls, “crisis teaching” and how both teachers and parents are working together in this time of crisis to educate a generation. Michelle also highlights some of the amazing things that she’s come out of this time. 🎈🚙🚗🚙🎉
A BIG THANK YOU to all you teachers out there!

Episode 4- The Global Good- Taiwan - Guest: Janet Lai
29 APR 2020 · My next guest is Janet Lai gracing us with her presence all the way from Taiwan! You’ll be surprised to find out that Taiwan is operating a little differently from the rest of the world, which is something she is incredibly thankful for! Janet also shares tips on combating fear at this time. Get ready to hear her amazing report!
Episode 3- The Global Good- Finland - Guest: Anu Hokkanen
22 APR 2020 · Anu shares about the amazing things that have taken place in her life and country in the midst of COVID-19.
She touches on her life at a slower pace (during the interview she was in Lapland, Finland- basically the North Pole), authenticity in relationships, COVID-19 through the eyes of children and teddy bears in windows.
Episode 2- The Global Good- Uganda - Guest: Allen Kajjubi
16 APR 2020 · In my short thirty-five years of life, I have seen a pattern that seems to be foolproof. During disasters, whether natural or initiated by man, people come together; and more often than not, for the good. I want to highlight these stories; and just a precautionary note- they may lead to a much-needed ab workout (speaking for myself) or bring you to tears (maybe both). So, keep the Kleenex close by, or a hanky if they’re sold out.
