Hey friends!
It’s no surprise we live in a world full of distractions. We’re often advised to limit time on social media and Netflix. What if social media isn’t the problem? What if it’s covering up emotional toxins poisoning your thoughts?
Today’s conversation is with Billie Jauss. We are discussing distractions and emotional toxins (think comparison, people-pleasing, and lies about your identity).
In today’s episode, we dive deep into the world of distractions and emotional toxins, discussing how our external distractions often cover up the internal emotional toxins that hold us back from connecting with others and ourselves. Billie and I also explore the dangers of over-volunteering and people-pleasing and how they can lead to a lack of self-care and personal fulfillment.
Lastly, we discuss the importance of turning to God’s word to remind ourselves of our true identity and purpose and how having Bible verses written down and readily available can help combat negative thoughts and fears.
Join us as we uncover the truth behind our emotional toxins and learn how to break free from the distractions that hold us back.
