In this episode, Dr. Mo talks about the upcoming presidential election in the United States. She encourages us to pay close attention to our political posture for our wellbeing.

Unlike the rhetoric that defines our posture by the side we choose, Dr. Mo invites us to heighten our awareness toward the posture of our bodies. Are you holding tension in your body? Are you anxious? Frustrated? Fearful?

Tune into this episode to understand the importance of attuning to your bodies, expressing your emotions, and outlining your fears or tensions.

In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses Clergy Appreciation Month and closing out Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Dr. Mo encourages us to remember the emotional load that clergy carry and to consider being a healthy support for them. Many clergy cannot disclose some of the issues that burden them due to the sensitivity and confidentiality that is required as part of their ministerial work.

Tune into this episode as we consider being in healthy relationships with our clergy by extending gestures such as offering to pay for a counseling session, telling them you’re sorry about the hurt and abuse they experienced, and showing concern for them as humans with a high and heavy calling.

In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses the difference between submission and control as we further discuss the use of male privilege as a means of power in abusive relationships.

Many women believe they are being godly thinking submission is the same as control. Today, we define submission to understand how we should exercise agency in relationships to choose healthy relationships and be able to recognize red flags where male privilege is abusive and oppressive.

Tune into this episode as we discuss how to distinguish between submission and control to discern if relationships are abusive. If you are beginning to recognize these patterns in your relationship, please call a trusted friend or family member, or reach out to the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233.

In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses power and control as central components in abusive relationships.

Many individuals do not recognize their relationships as abusive because the relationship is not physically abusive. Relationships do not have to be physically violent to be abusive. Perpetrators of abuse are masters of exerting power and control over their partners.

Tune into this episode as we discuss the behaviors that are characteristic as ways of exerting power and control in abusive relationships. If you recognize these patterns in your relationship, please call a trusted friend or family member, or reach out to the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233.

In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses Domestic Violence Awareness Month and how to recognize red flags of abusive relationships.

Not all domestically violent relationships have an element of physical violence but all have elements of power and control. Typically, these behaviors are not immediately recognized in the beginning of relationships.

Tune into this episode as we discuss how to recognize if you are being manipulated through tactics to isolate you from friends and family. Remember Proverbs 11:14 advises us “there is safety in the multitude of counselors”. Tell someone about your relationships to have others to help you discern if it is healthy or not.

In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses Suicide Prevention Month and how the CHURCH can be a protective and preventive factor against suicide.

Interpersonal neurobiology informs us that emotional regulation can happen between two people when one is regulated. Our interactions with other individuals can be critical to another’s emotional wellbeing and health.

Tune into this episode as we discuss Paul’s words in I Corinthians 1:8. This verse gives us a framework in being with others who are overwhelmed and utterly hopeless.

On this episode, Dr. Mo discusses the psychology of adjustment and how we can equip college students to most optimally cope with and manage the demands and challenges of this new life.

A thorough and honest examination must be conducted in order for college students (& individuals in general) to assess the types of behaviors they use to adjust. Introspection helps to determine if these behaviors are helpful or not.

Tune in to this episode featuring our ministry to college students and assisting them to adjust in ways that are beneficial and healthy.
