What a first episode!! Very thought provoking and encouraging!!
omg you were in Malawi 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 love love this episode, all the way from Malawi 🇲🇼
I loved this, didn't want it to end 😭😭 BTW our tomato sauce is amazing 😂😂
Friendship is key to a successful long term relationship. So if a guy wants to go "Dutch" he is automatically placed in the Friend Zone!
Amazing!!! I got to understand myself a lot thru this. I hate routines cause they can be mundane and this has made me skip or not be consistent with things, thus no growth. Thanks a million for sharing this. Amazing inspiration
powerful episode ! let's be productive in this season .
Loving this podcast ♥️ Right on time ! I especially loved the omnipresence episode where Jackie talked about the beauty of having consistency and being still. Keep the content coming .Thoroughly enjoying these.
Thanks for sharing this. Aside from the gist of the conversation, I learnt a lot from all the other stuff that popped up. The value of friendship and how inconvenient it is being a friend at times and that it's OK to not commit to sthng you don't feel you can commit to.
I love the friendship you and Natalie have. It's something that I am trying to have as well because I feel like I grew up with a mindset that said "if you have a close friendship with a guy it should be for marriages sake and not just for having a friend" I no longer want to see all my guy friends as potential husbands but just as my friend.
This was nice 😌😌
... And even if it's impossible, I would really like to talk with and listen to you, as a bro and friend. For the moment I will keep listening 😉
Powerful. Thank you for sharing! God bless you, and all the brothers and sisters who are seeking for the way through it.
Nice to hear you talk. I hear also al lot of normative talks, that as a Dutchman also sound quite traditional and outdated. If you chenge every thought you speak out about a woman, with man, than you would realize how gender concepts are not anymore of this time and age. That a woman can buy her own house, praise the lord! A much as it is for a man.
Who is interviewing who?🤔 I'm messing.😉 Thanks for this, amazing stuff. Favorite channel already.
Hi Joe, thank you so much for this. One thing I've learnt in all of this is that the devil will try by all means to get you isolated and that is when he can deal with you. Negative doubts will fill your mind to the point of death. This is a very serious condition that needs to be taked about more on such platforms so that more people wil be helped. God bless you bro and may you receive complete healing.
please what's the name of the guy whose voice you joined in the earlier recording of this podcast episode.
I concur about this. eye opening speech.
