Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.You know the number one thing that causes decision fatigue in your life? Not knowing if you’re having a thought or a prompting. I see so many women making one very big mistake in this regard. They start thinking that every good thought is the spirit telling them it’s a prompting. So then they start acting in the name of Christ to help everyone else to the point of exhaustion because helping someone else is a good thought right?Sure, HOWEVER, when they do this they often end up making poor decisions which involve the care of their own mind and body because they sacrificed all their decision making ability and energy on others throughout the day. That is exhausting! Have you ever been there? Then this episode is for you. Join me as  I discuss what the root cause of all that decision fatigue really is and how you can move forward with clarity in your decision making.Join the Sink Stress Spiritually Classhttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.com/SinkStessSpritually You might also enjoy these episodes from the Meaningful Minutes PodcastEpisode 86: Learning to Hear Him in the Chaoshttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.com/blog/86Episode 100.

Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.Each time I talk to women who are struggling in some way with their spiritual habits I have found it’s at least one of three things. What I mean by spiritual habits, is things like reading your scriptures, saying your prayers or going to the temple.Yes, there are many more spiritual habits than those but in this episode I want to show you three things that are destroying those specific spiritual habits. This will help illustrate what I am talking about.So listen in as I compare and contrast situations to show you what it looks and sounds like when these three things are present in your life and when they aren’t.

She struggled to distinguish her own thoughts from spiritual promptings and was unable to trust herself.As always she turned to a spiritual routine but felt it was nothing more than "just going through the motions." As she learned to implement the skills she learned in the group coaching program was able to more fully hear the spirit, connect with the Savior, and find confidence in herself and what she has to offer others.Grab your Skill Tap Band HEREwww.LDSMHco.com Fortify Your Mental Health FREE Mini Coursehttps://www.ldsmentalhealthco.com/FortifyRegistration

Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.Perfection is a topic I teach women about almost daily and is one of the most misunderstood terms in the gospel. Women often think the term perfect when used in the scriptures means to be without mistake.This then leads to them searching to crack the code of never making a mistake in order to live up to what God wants them to do. This thought process of trying to be without mistakes and show up perfectly or don’t show up at all leads to a lot of stress, overwhelm, hurt and heartache.Eventually feeling like you will never be good enough. This is NOT what God wants you to feel and certainly not what he meant when He said, “Be ye therefore perfect”. Imperfection is a part of our earthly experience. So what do the scriptures mean by “perfect?” This is exactly what this episode is about. Here are 3 ways to be perfect, according to scripture.Join the waitlist: Removing Roadblocks to Revelation Group Coachinghttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.com/rrr-waitlistYou might also enjoy these episodes from the Meaningful Minutes PodcastEpisode 87: The Natural Man: The Enemy to Your Mental Healthhttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.com/blog/87Episode 75.

Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.Have you ever wondered what the difference is between having a coach or a therapist? I get this question a lot since I am actually both. Women are often asking me which they would benefit from each and what the differences are. I decided to do an episode on the LDS Mental Health Podcast because there is a lot more to it than a quick Instagram Dm response can hold. So today you will hear some of the differences, similarities, and something you maybe haven’t even thought about when considering between the two.Join the waitlist: Removing Roadblocks to Revelation Group Coachinghttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.com/rrr-waitlistYou might also enjoy these episodes from the LDS Mental Health Podcast Episode 95: The Gospel and Your Mental Healthhttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.com/blog/95 Episode 87: The Natural Man: The Enemy to Your Mental Healthhttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.com/blog/87Check out what other resources are available from Nikihttps://www.nikiolsencoaching.comFollow Niki on social media for more free contenthttps://www.instagram.com/nikiolsencoaching/Grab your Skill Tap Band HEREwww.LDSMHco.com Fortify Your Mental Health FREE Mini Coursehttps://www.ldsmentalhealthco.com/FortifyRegistration
