Qualified Issues

What is wisdom? Do you believe you are a wise individual? What makes you believe that? How do you define wisdom? Let's see what some others say about this word. 

Welcome to season 4! This season I am focused on the concepts of wisdom and discernment. What are they? How do they play a role in our lives? How do they relate to the other seasons' topics? Let's find out!

This episode works to weave together everything we have learned so far!

This is usually a very hard topic to consider when you have been hurt by someone else in one way or another. But, it is definitely worth listening to as forgiveness does help us move forward when we are ready.

In order to recover from, resolve, or heal from a negative root cause in our lives, we have to have good self-awareness... a sense of self. 

Part of working through negative root causes in our lives includes learning to accept certain elements. This episode explores those elements and how to work towards acceptance. 

Negative experiences are never pleasant, but they can still provide meaning and purpose in our lives. 

Introduction to season 3 of Qualified Issues. This season we will be looking at root causes of mental health issues.

In the final episode of season 2 I am going to tie together the idea of change from season 1. 

Like change, influence is prevalent throughout our lives. Let's learn how influence feeds our perspective on almost a daily basis. 

Today we are learning some basics about the general beliefs of the five most popular faiths and religions in the world. We then will take those and learn how they can inform or influence our perspective. 

Part two of the role of personality covers the relationship between personality and perspective. 

In this episode we take a look at personality. What is it? What does it look like? Because personality is such a large topic, I have broken it into a two-part podcast. Next podcast will focus on how personality, described in this podcast, influences and/or impacts perspective. 

This episode focuses on people and institutions that account for the environmental influence in perspective development. 

This is it! The end of season 1 - all about change! How did you do? If change has been challenging for one or more reasons, I encourage you to go back to the beginning of season 1 and listen to each episode in order. Each episode is focused on a different factor involved with change, and helps you work through the Transtheoretical Model of Change. 

Welcome to the maintenance stage of the TTM of change! For some this may be very challenging. This episode contains great information and tools for working through this stage.

Working towards change requires making choices. This podcast focuses on those choices and how to use independent, critical thinking and accountability to make those choices even when working towards your goal of change gets tough!

This episode is for those individuals who are ready to take their chosen change or changes and formulate a plan of action. Goal setting can be trickier than you might think. Take some time and hear about the various ways to consider how to set your goals and steps.
