All I Have Is Today

You don’t need to have the whole plan figured out to start moving forward. Today’s focus is on fear, perfectionism, recovery, faith, and how real growth comes from taking one imperfect step at a time. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to begin, this episode is for you!

After one of the toughest seasons of my life, I was reminded of a simple truth: the sun still rose today. Today is about choosing gratitude over grief, finding purpose after pain, and embracing hope after heartbreak. It’s not about forgetting those we’ve lost, but about honoring them by living fully and making the most of the gift that is today.

This is the most personal episode I’ve ever recorded. After losing my mom to cancer, I want to share my own journey—not hers, but mine. From the fear and uncertainty of her diagnosis to sitting by her side in hospice, and finally finding peace when her suffering ended, this episode is an open reflection on grief, faith, love, and loss.  

Sometimes life hits us with devastating news about the people we love, and we’re powerless to make it better. In this raw episode, I talk about my fear and anxiety after my mom received terrible news, and how her situation became my own struggle with helplessness and uncertainty about the future.

Some nights, your mind just won’t shut off. In this episode of *All I Have Today*, we discuss four simple prayers to close out your day, helping you release stress, reset your mindset, and end the night with peace and space for reflection.

In this episode we discuss the exhausting cycle of worry, overthinking and the mental chaos associated with not giving my personal turmoil to God and trusting his plan and protection.  

This episode reminds us that faith was never meant to feel burdensome all the time. Today, we explore how joy, laughter, peace, and a cheerful heart can make you more spiritually fit than you might realize.

Today we face the reality of anger, ego, and our emotional reactions. While the world often pushes men to retaliate, protect their pride, and respond in the heat of the moment, the Bible calls for discipline, restraint, and self-control. We will explore why emotional reactions aren’t a sign of strength, how pride can spark conflict, and what it means to respond in the way God teaches, rather than letting emotions take the lead. 

In the episode, we are focusing on the mental health aspect of conflict relating to a simple disagreement verses a power-driven argument.  This type of disagreement isn't healthy...Let's talk about that...
