Be Honest As You Practice Humility
In this episode, I talk about the importance of honesty in the accountability code. Without honesty, real change and growth aren’t possible. I share personal stories about how dishonesty can show up in small ways, like making excuses or setting unrealistic goals. Being truthful with yourself brings clarity, peace, and happiness.
I break down key steps, including self-reflection, dropping the ego, setting realistic goals, taking action, and owning commitments. I also stress the importance of feedback and recognizing excuses. Ultimately, honesty helps you stay accountable and create the life you truly want.

In this episode of Your Loving Kick in the Pants, I talk openly about grief, why it’s so hard, but also how it can shape us for the better. I share how serving in my church inspired me to bring up grief as a discussion topic after several recent deaths in my community.
