233. Not So Happy Mission Memories

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/12/05

In Episode 233 – Not So Happy Mission Memories, I'm diving into a topic I know so many missionaries and returned missionaries quietly carry: the moments from the mission that didn't feel joyful, spiritual, or "life-changing" in the way we were told they would. In this episode, I talk openly about disappointment, unmet expectations, mission culture, emotional complexity, grief, and the real challenges that come when people—including mission presidents, companions, district leaders, roommates, or

232. Intentions and Attitudes

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/11/28

Episode 232 — "Intentions and Attitudes." In this episode, I dig into why an attitude of gratitude actually works on your brain and your day-to-day experience. We talk about the lower "caveman brain" (seek pleasure, avoid pain, conserve energy), confirmation bias (what you focus on grows), and how setting intentions ahead of time can shape the attitudes you'll have later—in district meetings, at family gatherings, on the mission, and post-mission. I share simple ways to direct your higher brain to

231. About Wasting Time

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/11/21

In Episode #231: About Wasting Time, I dive into one of the most common thoughts I hear from missionaries, returned missionaries, and even missionary moms — the fear that we're somehow "wasting time." Whether it's not being productive enough, not using P-day perfectly, or feeling like we should always be doing more, this mindset creates unnecessary stress, guilt, and disconnection from what really matters. In this episode, I explore where that pressure comes from, why it's so common, and how we can

230. There's No Place Like Home

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/11/14

In this episode, #230 - There's No Place Like Home, I dive into one of my favorite stories of all time — The Wizard of Oz — and explore the lessons it holds for missionaries, returned missionaries, and anyone navigating the twists and turns of personal growth. Drawing on the symbolism of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Lion, and even Elphaba from Wicked, we'll talk about what it really means to come "home." Spoiler alert: home isn't a place — it's you. If you've ever felt caught in a

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/11/07

In this new episode, 229. When Friendships Change, I'm diving into something we all experience but rarely talk about — the evolving nature of friendships. Whether you're serving a mission, have recently returned home, or are navigating changes in your ward or family relationships, this episode will help you understand why friendships shift and how to move through those transitions with compassion, honesty, and emotional maturity. I'll share real coaching stories from missionaries and RMs who've felt

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

Hey friends! Happy Halloween and welcome to Episode #228 — Am I Losing My Identity? Today we're diving into a topic that so many missionaries and returned missionaries struggle with, but rarely talk about out loud: identity. Whether you're seven months into the mission field, navigating the stress of keeping up with goals and routines, or you've just come home and feel like you're not sure who you are anymore — this episode is for you. Serving a mission often puts us into a world where everyone

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/10/24

In episode #227, “Hitting a Language or Growth Plateau,” I dive into what it really means to feel “stuck” — whether you’re learning a new language on your mission or working toward any kind of growth goal. We’ll talk about how powerful your thoughts are, how labeling yourself as “stuck” can actually keep you there, and how to shift your mindset to get unstuck with more compassion and intention. I’ll teach you how to move from fear-based motivation—like pressure, judgment, or comparison—to love-based

226. Training a New Missionary

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/10/17

In this new episode, #226 - Training a New Missionary, I’m sharing some heartfelt thoughts inspired by a question I once received from a missionary: “I’m training a new missionary, and I’m worried my bad habits will ruin him.” If you’ve ever felt pressure to be the perfect example—whether as a trainer, a leader, a parent, or even a friend—this episode is for you. We’ll talk about what your real job as a trainer actually is, how to let go of the fear of “ruining” someone, and why it’s so much more

2025/10/10

Hey missionary family! This podcast episode is #225 - Applying the Rule of Thirds. In this episode, I’m sharing something new I’ve been thinking about called the Rule of Thirds—and how it applies to missionary life, post-mission life, and really, all of our human experience. You’ve heard me talk before about the 50/50 rule—how life and missions are made up of both joy and struggle—but this time, I’m introducing a new way to see it: the top third, the bottom third, and the middle third. That middle

224. Why Resentment Builds

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/10/03

In this new episode #224 – Why Resentment Builds, I’m diving into one of those sneaky emotions that can quietly shape your mission and your life: resentment. We’ve all felt it—whether it’s with a companion, a roommate, a family member, or even in marriage. Resentment often builds when we expect someone else to meet our needs instead of learning how to meet them ourselves. I’ll share stories from my own life, experiences from missionaries in the field, and tools you can start using right away to

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/09/19

In this week’s episode of the LDS Mission Podcast, Episode 222: Trading Out the Tough Stuff, I’m sharing a concept that has been on my mind as I’ve worked with missionaries, returned missionaries, and missionary moms. Life on the mission—and after—can feel really tough. Whether it’s stress, overwhelm, loneliness, or self-doubt, it’s easy for our brains to shut down and say, “this is just too hard.” But what I’ve learned, and what I want to share with you, is that most of the time we’re not escaping

2025/09/12

In this episode of the LDS Mission Podcast, I’m diving into Ep. 221. The Feelings Formula—a simple but powerful way to process emotions that missionaries, returned missionaries, and missionary moms can use every single day. Too often we think feelings like anxiety, stress, homesickness, or discouragement mean something has gone wrong. The truth? Feelings are part of being human, and learning how to notice, name, allow, and release them is one of the most important skills you can take with you on

My hope is that by sharing my own experience, you’ll see pieces of your own life and mission journey reflected back at you. We talk about what it means to normalize bad days, to stop trying to “fix” ourselves, and to

219. Competition vs. Cooperation

The LDS Mission Podcast ·

2025/08/29

This week on the podcast, I’m diving into a topic that’s been on my mind a lot lately—competition vs. cooperation. We live in a world (and even within mission culture) where competition often takes center stage—ranking, comparing, pushing to be “the best.” But what happens when we shift our focus to cooperation instead? What if the real strength and success come from uniting, including, and building each other up? In this episode, I share personal stories, observations from ward and youth

Do you ever feel like you’re not cut out for the life you’re living—whether that’s preparing for a mission, serving right now, or figuring things out as a returned missionary? If so, you’re not alone. Doubt is part of the human experience, but that doesn’t mean it’s the truth.

In this episode, I share how I’ve been thinking about highs and lows lately, and why the “low tide” moments in our lives are not something to rush through or judge, but to actually honor and work with. I’ll take you back to a trip my family and I took to Haystack Rock on the Oregon coast, and how seeing it at

In this episode, 216. Being Who You Want to Be, I’m diving into one of the most powerful tools I’ve used with missionaries, mission leaders, parents, and RMs over the past six years—learning to take aligned action. What does that mean? It means checking in with your thoughts and feelings before making decisions or having hard conversations, and making sure they reflect the kind of person you actually want to be. We explore how to lead with love instead of pressure, act with compassion instead of

Hey missionary family! Here is podcast episode 214 - Everyday Sacred! Have you ever felt like some parts of your life are “less spiritual” than others? In this episode, I’m diving into the idea that maybe everything—yes, even lip sync battles, silly dances at girls camp, and lake days—can be sacred. I share personal stories, client insights, and some historical perspective that helped me shift the way I think about spirituality in everyday life.
