"When I encourage you, I feel encouraged because the words I said actually gave me courage for myself." Join me for this conversation with my dear friend, Sarah Nale, as we talk about the ways our words can instill courage in others, and even in ourselves. Whether words come easily to you or not, this episode will equip you with tools and examples of how to be a speaker of life wherever you go!

Sarah is one of the most gifted encouragers I know, and she generously offers words of life, belief, and hope to people around her. It doesn't matter if she's teaching dance fitness from a stage in the Jazzercise center she owns or helping a family find their next home in her work as a realtor, she can't open her mouth without calling out the goodness she sees in others. She is the type of friend that every person needs, and one of the first people I call when I'm struggling to see myself clearly. I hope you'll feel encouraged as we share about the power of giving one another courage through our words!

We talk about things like:

  • The power of borrowing belief from others when we can't believe for ourselves
  • Recognizing the power in our words to give courage—and how we often need to receive courage from others in order to give it
  • Advice for people who want to speak life but don’t have a natural strength with words
  • How to develop our encouragement muscles through practice 
  • How we can use our minds to break down walls of competition and comparison
