188 | Breathing With Jesus and the Peace Barometer, With Marnie Swedberg

Even though acquiring emotional intelligence is a popular trend in our culture, it is unfortunate that, as Christian women, we are still frowned upon and labeled as "too emotional."

Nonetheless, emotions are vital. And there are many ways we can learn from our emotions: from our underlying needs, to the emotional tone of others and much more.

We can also use emotions as a barometer for our connection with God, and this is exactly what Marnie Swedberg is doing.

I had the joy of interviewing Marnie and she shares many nuggets and beautiful examples of staying connected with God. She is an author of 14 books, host of the #1 rated radio show Marnie's Friends, mentor to millions, and host of the largest online directory of its kind in the world: the Christian Women Speakers.

Marnie has many favorite bible verses, and one of them, which brings her joy, is "Your word is a lamp to my feet, And a light to my path." Psalm 119:105 NKJV

In our conversation, we unpack:
✨ Her vocational journey, with many twists and turns.

✨ Her connection with God and unique way to "breathe Jesus" (and a super cool metaphor which you don't want to miss).

✨ The way she uses her emotions as a "Peace Barometer"
