Episode 15 -Staying Present in a World Full of Doom and Gloom

from Chiming In · host Elyse Tapper and David Cardon

There’s so much heaviness out there right now — wars, crises, politics, social tension — and it can easily pull us out of the present and into overwhelm. In this episode, we talk about how we’re trying to stay sane and bring our best selves without getting completely swallowed by the news cycle and stress of the world. It’s an honest conversation about how we are dealing with the news around the world without letting it dominate our entire life.We go back and forth on how we each approach the news (sometimes off, sometimes on), how our emotions can get wrapped up in it, how there’s so much we won’t ever be able to fully understand, and what it looks like to send love, prayer, and positive energy into the world  and to our leaders anyway.Plus: a little Golden Globes discussion including Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carol Burnett Award acceptance speech which was gorgeous in every way.https://youtu.be/3iHjvKTwFNgE-mail us at [email protected].
