Life gets busy, stress creeps in, and before we know it, we’re caught up in the rush—worrying about the next thing on our to-do list. But what if we paused for just a moment? What if, instead of letting worry take over, we chose to look for the little reminders of God’s presence all around us?
In this episode, I’m sharing how slowing down and noticing the beauty in nature—whether it’s the towering mountains, a tiny wildflower, or even the way sunlight filters through the clouds—has helped me feel closer to God. We’ll talk about why nothing is too big or too small to bring to Him, why even the smallest moments matter, and how shifting your focus can bring a sense of peace and joy to your day.
So grab your favorite drink, take a deep breath, and let’s dive in.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
