    Episode Highlights:

    03:31 - A lot of people put the emphasis on marriage itself, the ceremony, the doves, the train that the bride has on her dress, the bridesmaids, little girls kicking out flowers and rose petals down the aisle. That is but a fraction, less than 1% of what a marriage is, that marital ceremony. The marriage begins actually after you say, "I do."

    12:44 - Wives, be subject, be submissive, adapt yourselves to your own husbands as a service for the Lord, for the husband is the head of the wife. Now, you might talk the most, you're not the head though. You're not. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, himself, the savior of his body.

    31:10 - When you're engaging your spouse, speak in a tone that's inviting and conciliatory. Don't raise your voice. Don't get into an argument, and when you sense that the conversation is about to boil over, be the one that says, "Hold on. It seems like this conversation is about to kind of get out of hand. Why don't we put this on the shelf and come back to it later when we both have cooler heads?" That's wisdom.

  • Overcoming Personal & Interpersonal Challenges In Corporate Spaces with John Haynes III
    Jul 10 2023

    Join us as we dive into an inspiring conversation with John Haynes III, an esteemed Executive Level Human Resources Business Partner, Coach, and Advisor. With over 25 years of experience in organizational development, HR, and talent management, John shares his insights on success, courageous conversations, and purposeful leadership.

    John firmly believes that doing what you love is the key to achieving success. He encourages individuals to tune into their internal voice, to listen to their intuition, and to run what he calls the "God experiment."

    Listen to John emphasize the importance of initiating real healing by engaging in open and honest dialogue, even when faced with challenges and hear his advice to have faith and to carry that faith with you in every aspect of your life. Discover why John believes in the power of the three R's: Relationships, Risk, and Reward & Recognition when you tune in to this episode.

    Episode Highlights:

    08:48 - Do what you love and I firmly believe if you do what you love, you can make as much money as you want to. It was just so crazy that that voice, I just have so much proof that the voice that comes to me happens to be right.

    18:46 - I give as much vulnerability as I want to see, and I'm also a keen listener. When people actually see you listening to them, somehow their spirit walks into a safe place when they actually see someone is listening.

    34:19 - Racism still exists. Inequities still exist. People have become more savvy at locking people out of rooms and putting ceilings on people's heads and not developing people because of the way that they live their life or the color of their skin. Those things still exist.
