We have all been taught how habits can create better results in our lives and that they can help us reach our goals and dreams. But coach Kat Jenkins believes habits are just the beginning. She helps her clients move from habits which are based in actions to rituals which may look like habits but are really practices that have deeper meaning and purpose. This episode will help you see how you can move from habit actions to a life of meaningful rituals that don’t just help you accomplish your goals but create sacred spaces out of the seemingly mundane daily tasks we all engage in during our lives.

We'll discuss how he gets permission to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, encounters opposition along the way, but continues to move forward towards his purpose. We'll talk about the power of understanding our purpose and how this can help us with our own challenges. We will also discuss how having an overall goal, or purpose, can be broken down to smaller goals and thus be more doable on a regular basis.

The humanitarian needs across the world right now are enormous. War, political corruption, natural disasters, debilitating poverty, and economic failure can all cause a humanitarian crisis. When these crises occur, our natural instinct is the help. And, helping out seems straightforward – you just send money or show up. But can assistance sometimes do more harm than good? What is the true impact of humanitarian efforts? If you’re not careful, your time and money may do no good to help those in crisis. Worse, it might end up hurting those you’re hoping to help. In this podcast episode, we consider how best to respond in a humanitarian crisis, why doing a “service trip” to a distant country isn’t necessarily helpful and ways to boost the impact of your humanitarian aid.
