First of AllFirst Of All - Good GriefTW: Infant Loss, Death, Grief
Navigating grief has been the hardest thing I've ever done. Every minute is different from the last. Sometimes I feel like I'm pinned under a hundred weighted blankets and other times it feels a little easier to breath. Either, I'm grateful to have a circle of people that help breathing easy, come easy.
On this episode, I get to chat with my big bro Solomon Chapman about navigating the woe that is grief. https://anchor.fm/first-of-all-the-podcast0/episodes/First-Of-All---Good-Grief-e2fkl3n2024-02-121h 20First of AllFirst of All - The Dreamer EpisodeWhat does it mean to be a dreamer?

God knows every twist, turn & tumble that we’re going to take, way before it happens. Even though He knows, we’re still finding out every single day. God gives us the opportunity to make better decisions and to be better people. He gives a chance to rewrite our stories so that they look more like His.

Why is this happening? When will it end? What's the point? This year many of us have been forced to face ourselves and genuinely figure out why we're here.

In this episode, I talk with Elder Jeffrey Brooks, aka my dad, about understanding what your purpose is and how to walk in it, just like we're supposed to.Follow Us on Instagram: @FirstofAlltheInstaSubscribe to this podcast...2021-01-0132 minFirst of AllFirst of All - The Dear Younger Me EpisodeHave you ever sat and reflected about the decisions that you have made in the past and thought, "If only I knew then, what I know now...?"

What is your family like? What's your favorite color? What do you do for a living? So many surface level questions that don't require deeper level answers. In this episode my favorite person and I play a game called "We're Not Really Strangers". This game offers some simple questions that can provoke some profound thoughts. We used this game to dig a little deeper and learn a little more. Please enjoy this episode with my very special guest, my husband, Aaron Daniels.2020-05-2734 minFirst of AllFirst of All - The Finish or _____ Episode Pt. 1Sometimes we get so caught up in what starting something looks like, that we forget to finish. Sometimes we start something so strongly, but we hinder our own progress. Sometimes the voices we hear telling us to "keep going" and that "you got this" are just as loud as the ones doubting our own abilities. But what if you did finish? What if you did just push through the uncomfortability of it all? What if it works? Finishing is the only way to turn the "what if" into "it did". In this episode Alexandria Reed, founder of Gladiate Beautifully...2020-05-1230 minFirst of AllFirst of All - The Still vs. Stagnant EpisodeNo one is used to this. This is a time where everyone is basically forced to sit still, but expected to keep it moving. Being still doesn't necessarily mean doing nothing. Being still can mean being quiet or being at peace. During this time there is still so much pressure to perform, but people forget that having no choice but to be alone with yourself is a task in itself. You don't have to come up with a new hobby or a new skill to be considered productive. If you can spend time with yourself and recognize the issues...2020-04-1521 minFirst of AllFirst of All - The Generational Curses EpisodeNumber 14:18 says ‘The LORD is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.’ Oftentimes we deal with emotions, issues and habits that we don't fully understand and that we know aren't healthy. We get so stuck on the notion that, "That's just how I am..." not realizing that who you are is a result of the decisions that were made before you were even a thought. It doesn't stop at generational alcoholism or ad...2020-03-111h 14First of AllFirst of All - The Anxiety & Mental Health EpisodeThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Millions of people are dealing with mental health issues everyday and only a fraction of those people are seeking treatment for it. Anxiety and depression are real things. A lot of times we try to negate or suppress our own thoughts and emotions because we don't feel like we're in control of them. As Christians, we know...2020-02-2654 minFirst of AllFirst of All - The Pain Tolerance EpisodePain tolerance is the maximum level of pain that person is able to tolerate. Every person has some sort of pain threshold, in every sense of the word, and ways that they deal with pain.
