Find Joy Where You Are with Rochelle Asberry

February 19, 2019 by Ericka Leave a Comment

Sometimes, the universe drops someone into your life -- and that's how it was with Rochelle Asberry! I was fortunate enough to meet her after I spoke at Linking Indy Women a few months ago. We met for breakfast and had so much to talk about -- and so much in common! In today's episode, Rochelle and I talk about her journey to finding success as a health and wellness coach -- including a successful massage therapy practice. Rochelle also talks about what it means to truly embrace the present and find joy in all that you do. She loves the concept so much, she wrote a whole book about it! I especially loved the inspiration she found to start a non-profit called Kind Hands Foundation, which provides health and hygiene products for … [Read more...]

Sanity and Civility in 2019 with Audrey Scagnelli

February 12, 2019 by Ericka Leave a Comment

Ever felt like you were going crazy when political issues get hot? I feel ya. So does today's podcast guest, Audrey Scagnelli. Bipartisanship and civility is kind of her middle name. She's the founder of Sanity Media, a new online hangout for moderates, liberals, conservatives – and some non-politicals, too. Her group is united by a common belief in the importance of listening to each other, and in the possibilities of pragmatism and collaboration. It's possible -- and Audrey has found a ton of folks who are on board with the idea of conversation, moderation, respect and civility. She's partnered with and interviewed a co-founder of MoveOn.org, representatives from the Bipartisan Policy Center and many who have embraced the … [Read more...]

Church Politics: Diversity & Jesus with Trillia Newbell

February 5, 2019 by Ericka Leave a Comment

Trillia Newbell has a voice that radiates joy. You'll hear that in today's episode, when I speak with her about her career as a writer, her love of the gospel and about important topics like racial diversity, Christians in the age of Trump and a hope greater than this world. Trillia is the author of many books, most recently a bible study on Romans, but her book "United: Captured by God's Vision for Diversity" is where I first read her words. After getting the chance to meet her at the Gospel Coalition Conference last year, I was thrilled when she accepted the invitation to chat with me on "Worth Your Time." Trillia's wise words about staying joyful, hopeful and embracing the neighbors and friends God has put into our lives were … [Read more...]

Hero in Our Time: Jessica Hulsey Nickel’s Fight to Save Lives

January 29, 2019 by Ericka Leave a Comment

Jessica Hulsey Nickel's first advocacy project came when she was in elementary school -- and she hasn't stopped educating others about addiction and prevention since then. It's been 20 years --and since then she founded the Addiction Policy Center. As a little girl, her parents both suffered from drug-use disorders and she spent long stints in foster care and living with grandparents as her parents navigated their way through grueling addictions. Her tough beginnings led her to a life of passionate advocacy, rather than becoming a statistic of the drug epidemic herself. She found herself at Princeton University and not long after, working with every President from Bill Clinton to Donald Trump. She's re-creating the … [Read more...]
