In the Author's Corner with Etienne
Summary: Hello, Friends and Visitors! We're are delighted to inform you that In the Author's Corner with Etienne is coming back home, effective the first of Dec 2020. As you might know, the devastation of dual-Hurricanes Irma and Maria knocked us off the air (with medical issues included), assigned me as a Crisis Counselor during the recovery phase, and awaking scheduling for my medical follow-ups! In the meanwhile, I have been preparing gifts and surprises for you, my Faithful Followers. More to come! (Want to be a guest? Then email me at emailme7261@gmail.com) ************************* We regret that, since the devastation of Hurricanes Irma and Maria, our studio and related technology have been down. Our intentions were to keep you posted on our status. That, unfortunately, has not occurred until now, Sept. 5, 2018. During the recovery process, I have been functioning as a Crisis Counselor, in a local nonprofit agency, funded by The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Most recently yours truly was promoted to Crisis Counselor Lead. This podcast will remain on hiatus until further notice.

Welcome Jed Jurchenko and Our Coffee Shop Conversations Segment on Faith, Family, and Friendship On the Coffee Shop Conversations Segment, you'll find freshly brewed wisdom to help you mature your faith, lead your family, and grow your friendships so that you and your family can live joy-filled, Christ-honoring lives.

According to Jed, “Asking is also a skill that improves with practice. The authors [of the book, The Aladdin Factor, by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen] also make it clear that there is no formula for 100% asking success. And they [successful people] ask over and over again. My favorite takeaway from the book is the formula SW x4.” Let’s find out together what Jed has to say about asking for what we need. “Asking gives other people an opportunity to help. When we ask, we give others the opportunity to say Yes! When we ask, there is the possibility of moving toward our goals!” And those goals will help us in our faith, family, and friendship.

As a fatherless daughter, Candice Ragland’s interpretation of life is a lot different from daughters with fathers in their home. From her experiences that she has put into her book, Invisible Dad, she has come to learn that an incomplete image is what you constantly feel when you see fathers on television, in the grocery store, and on social media. And no matter how much you try to voice your feelings, you steadily are sucked into life’s woes. Calling herself a journeyist, her goal is to help fatherless daughters on their journey back to God. As a woman full of determination, Candice continues to make great strides in her life. Candice believes, “Perfection is the perfect way for you to mentally escape. Ultimately, you never deal with the trials of your childhood, leaving you to grow into a person that lacks confidence in your emotional voice.” Because Candice has been able to turn her life around, she will for you, too. In her book you’ll find the strength to: let go of a dead illusion to receive the richness of God’s beauty; release control of a perfect picture and relinquish judgment; conquer the road to restoration; live in your own truth; and much more! Join Candice as she takes you on her journey of coming face-to-face with being a fatherless daughter, to living an amazing life filled with healing and wholeness. Visit www.invisibledadjourney.com!

He didn’t deny his flaws, try to hide them, or pretend that they didn’t exist. His limp was there for the world to see. Yet, he succeeded anyway!” Jed’s curious what was on Walt’s mind when he spoke about his “kick in the teeth.” The best way to blog with a limp is to begin taking action. The first few steps are always the most difficult. Everything gets easier from there. Disney stated, “The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.” Momentum is like a steam-engine. At rest, a small, slanted block, under the front tire, will hold that engine in place. However, moving at full speed, that engine will crash through most any barrier. Let’s find out together what Jed has to say about how “leading with a limp will help us in our faith, family, and friendship. Visit Jed at: www.CoffeeShopConversations.com/How-to-Blog-with-a-Limp/
