Look whose next on Begin Again Podcast? The Voice, Angie Jackson - I heard her at Church in the Choir singing “God Kept Me.” This woman had me in tears when I heard her sing this song. Her voice is anointed and i just want “more” of her voice. I asked her to sing a portion of it on the Podcast and she’s still amazing. I felt it! When I heard her sing, I told myself- I must hear her story and interview her, now. I’ve been trying to cut Season 2 after 12 episodes and I’m still interviewing people. I told her this is basically a testimony of “overflow” because her episode will be 14 or 15. We are in the “over-flow!” Nevertheless, this beautiful 60 year young woman lost her son a couple years ago. She’s still dealing with the pain of it and desires to heal and begin again. I’m wrapping my whole self around her to encourage her healing. I feel led ”to keep her like that song has Kept Me and God has Kept Me. I desire to see her healed and confidently living her best life. She doesn’t all the way own her voice, but I told her Gods gifts are without repentance. I don’t know what God has in store for her but I know -I have a desire to help her reprogram her mind, heal and “get there.” She’s so ready to heal and I am attracted to watching her “live again.” We agreed she has a “past survival mode routine.” She has to STOP reliving the guilt and reframe it and forgive herself. She admitted making decisions from her broken pieces but all that is about to change. God Kept Her - that’s all I have to say. Please watch this episode?

Cathryn Kemp's powerful words shatter common stereotypes about addiction. This quote challenges us to rethink our perceptions and recognize that addiction can affect anyone, from any walk of life. Addiction doesn't discriminate. It's not confined to the shadows or the fringes; it's in our homes, our communities, and our workplaces. Kemp’s experience reminds us that behind every case of addiction there's a story, a person who needs understanding and support, not judgment. Let’s use this understanding to foster compassion and support in our approach to addiction and recovery. Everyone's journey is unique, but empathy and kindness can be universal. ---------- Get the latest scoop on our podcast episodes and events!

It's Okay to Ask for Help Recovery is a journey, not a solo mission. Remember, it’s perfectly okay—and actually crucial—to ask for help at any stage of your recovery. Whether you're just starting out or you're years into your journey, reaching out for support is a sign of strength, not weakness. Asking for help can empower you to overcome obstacles and maintain your path to healing. It connects you with others who understand your struggles and can offer the encouragement and resources you need to thrive. So, if you're feeling overwhelmed or just need someone to talk to, don't hesitate to seek support. You're not alone in this journey. 🤝💪 ---------- Join our newsletter for a curated selection of podcast highlights and insights!

REPOST: @sharcoach Look whose next on “Begin Again Podcast!” Angela Williams my “Global Speakers University,” Classmate and Sister-Friend. It was a pleasure interviewing her tonight and getting to know her better. We trauma-bonded tonight because my inner-child recognized and related to her inner-child of not feeling like she belonged, seeking validation and more similar insecurities. Angela has survived the loss of both parents; she’s the care-giver to her son diagnosed with Quadriplegia Cerebral Palsy and her Pop Pop who just passed several weeks ago- He’s also the person who raised her. I am proud of her ability to be interviewed so soon after this devastating loss. It speaks to her resilience; her faith in God and her ability to inspire. She’s also a breast cancer survivor; her testimony speaks volumes. She talks about how she made the decision “to live and to heal.” She talked about when she “felt like she was dying.” She talked about her limiting beliefs and how she felt disappointment in her marriage - and how she had to heal from the expectations she had for her husband when she was hurting - but had to take accountability for her trauma and find the cause. She talked about being in a “Season of Self-Awareness” and explained it so graciously. She demonstrates a woman who has “done her work” and continues to be on her healing journey as a Mental Health Restoration Coach. She is committed to being a demonstration of strength and resilience. I know this episode will help somebody, “get up and live again.” This episode will will help somebody “use their faith to help and not hinder” their healing journey. She shared Philippians 4:11-13, I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be CONTENT whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the SECRET of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through Christ who gives me STRENGTH.

Look who I interviewed tonight on Begin Again Podcast! Dr. Timogi Jackson from Global Speakers University (GSU). My Classmate, Sister in Christ & Shopping Buddy! We shopped together when she traveled down to VA for our last GSU event. I keep thinking she’s from Texas because she loves “Cowboy Hats & Boots” but she’s not. She lives in the state, I keep forgetting( lol), oh yeah North Carolina; she lives in North Carolina- close enough for me to visit Amen. Nevertheless, she shared her testimony and I appreciated her transparency, for example: 1. Why did I stay in a 15 year failing marriage when God gave me permission to leave year 1? 2. She didn’t want her life to be a statistic and her children not to be raised in a 2 parent household. 3. She was raised in a dysfunctional 2 parent household and was repeating that pattern. 4. She had to realize God could provide for her and she didn’t have to depend on her withdrawing and neglectful husband to do it. She experienced abuse on a different level. 5. One of her lessons was “peace is worth fighting for.” I’m a say, peace is worth leaving for because that’s “what I’m hearing from her statement. Y’all just have to watch, I gave you a sneak peak. One of her favorite scriptures on her healing journey was, 2 Corinthians 4:17-18 — For this “light” momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. New Shows Every Monday on YouTube 10am - #BeginAgainPodcast #CoachShar #TimogiJackson

Recovery is not just about overcoming a dependency; it's a profound journey of self-discovery and identity transformation. As individuals progress through recovery, their sense of self undergoes significant changes. Early on, one’s identity might be closely tied to their addiction, overshadowing other aspects of their personality and life. Recovery opens the door to redefining oneself beyond the constraints of addiction. In recovery, as the fog of addiction clears, many discover interests, talents, and values that were previously obscured. This rediscovery can be exhilarating but also challenging, as it involves integrating these new aspects into a cohesive sense of self. We'd love to hear from you: How has your identity evolved through recovery? What new aspects of yourself have you discovered or embraced?

This powerful affirmation is a gentle reminder of your inherent worth and the respect you deserve, no matter where you are on your journey. Each of us is on a unique path, filled with ups and downs, successes and challenges. It's easy to be hard on ourselves during tough times, to doubt our worth or feel undeserving of love. But the truth is, you are worthy—always have been, always will be—simply because you exist. Embracing this belief can transform the way you view yourself and how you interact with the world. Self-respect fosters a kind of strength that is unshakeable, and believing in your worth helps you establish boundaries, pursue what truly makes you happy, and accept love and respect from others. Let this affirmation be your daily mantra. Repeat it, believe it, and watch as it begins to color your actions and decisions. Start treating yourself with the kindness and respect you’d offer someone you love deeply because how you love yourself sets the standard for how others will treat you. We want to hear from you: How does this affirmation resonate with your own experiences? How have you learned to love and respect yourself more deeply? Share your story or a moment when you felt a strong sense of self-worth.

Sobriety isn't just a journey away from substance use; it's a profound journey towards self-discovery. Jada Pinkett Smith's powerful words remind us that overcoming addiction is only the beginning. The real work—and the real reward—comes from rediscovering who you are without substances, from rebuilding the relationship with yourself that may have been lost along the way. In sobriety, every day becomes an opportunity to meet yourself anew, to learn about your strengths, explore your passions, and nurture your well-being. It’s about creating a life where you are not just surviving without drugs, but truly thriving in your own skin. As you continue on your path to recovery, take a moment to reflect: What have you learned about yourself since becoming sober? How have you changed?

Recovery is a journey that often requires not just internal resolve but also external support. Peer support groups are a cornerstone of many people's recovery experiences, providing both significant benefits and unique challenges. Peer support groups offer a sense of community and understanding that can be hard to find elsewhere. Members share experiences, strength, and hope, which can profoundly empower and inspire individuals in recovery. These groups provide a safe space to share openly without judgment, fostering a sense of belonging and mutual respect. They can also be a source of practical advice for navigating the everyday challenges of staying sober. We want to hear from you: If you’ve participated in a peer support group, what challenges did you face, and what benefits did you experience?

Addiction is a pervasive force that extends its impact far beyond the individual. It weaves through families, friendships, and communities, leaving a trail of emotional and economic challenges in its wake. Addiction is not an isolated battle; it’s a widespread issue that affects emotional well-being, finances, and the social fabric of communities. Families often face immense emotional distress and financial instability, which can lead to poverty or even bankruptcy. Friendships become strained, marred by trust issues and the unpredictable behaviors that come with substance abuse. On a broader scale, communities are left to contend with escalated healthcare costs, increased crime rates, and a decline in overall productivity. Moreover, the stigma surrounding addiction still looms large, creating barriers that prevent many from seeking the help they desperately need. Understanding that addiction is a societal issue underscores the need for collective action. It calls for comprehensive prevention and treatment strategies that include community support systems, educational outreach, and policy reform aimed at treating addiction with the compassion and urgency it demands. Let’s talk about it: How can we, as a community, come together to support individuals and families affected by addiction? Share your thoughts, experiences, or ideas on how we can break the stigma and foster a more supportive environment for recovery. ---------- Stay updated with our latest news and offers!

A gentle yet powerful reminder from the wisdom of Alcoholics Anonymous that resonates deeply on the path to recovery. This simple saying encourages patience, reminding us that the journey of recovery is not a race. It's about taking one step at a time, allowing ourselves to heal at our own pace, and not forcing progress. 'Recovery is a process, not an event.' In the rush to reach sobriety, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. 'Easy does it' teaches us to slow down, to be mindful of our actions and thoughts, and to approach our recovery with care and consideration. It’s a call to prioritize self-compassion over self-imposed pressure and to recognize that small, steady steps often lead to lasting change. This approach not only helps in preventing burnout and relapse but also in building a sustainable and fulfilling sober life. It reminds us that it's okay to take a breath, to be gentle with ourselves, and to trust in the gradual process of becoming better. How has taking it easy helped you in your recovery or in life in general? Share your experiences and insights on the power of patience and gentle progress. ---------- Stay ahead of the curve with our newsletter!

In this profound episode of The Begin Again Podcast with Flindt Anderson, Gary Menkes illuminates the sweeping changes that come with sobriety. It's not just about putting down the drink or stepping away from substances; it's about embracing a whole new way of living. From adopting healthier habits like exercising and mindful eating to experiencing a profound internal shift—sobriety offers more than a second chance; it's a rebirth, a true 'begin again' moment. Gary's insights remind us that choosing sobriety isn't just choosing to stop; it's choosing to start anew with a vibrant, expansive outlook on life. Whether you're on this journey yourself or supporting someone who is, remember that every step towards sobriety is a step towards a fuller, richer life. Share your 'begin again' story with us and let's celebrate the beautiful transformations that sobriety brings. @andersenflindt @painnonprofit ---------- Experience our podcast like never before!
