Hi friends—welcome back! Quick life update: I started a new job, met some great people, and explored new parts of Utah. But while I was away, my husband mentioned there were big storms in St. Louis—right where my son is serving. My old patterns of worry kicked in, but this time, I caught it. I reminded myself: I trust him. I trust God. It’s going to be okay.

That’s what inspired today’s episode. We’re talking about the quiet, sneaky thoughts running in the background—thoughts that shape how we experience everything.

President Nelson’s invitation to Think Celestial isn’t just a spiritual idea—it’s a practical tool for the moments when your mind starts spinning. Today, I’ll teach you how to:

  • Recognize when your brain is gathering negative evidence
  • Pause and ask: Is this thought lifting me higher or pulling me lower?
  • Shift into more peaceful, faith-filled thinking—even when life is still hard

We’ll explore real-life examples and simple ways to change the stories your brain loves to repeat. And we’ll anchor this in Philippians 4:8—think on these things.

God isn’t asking for perfect thinking. Just one thought higher.

If this resonated with you, send me a DM or email. I love hearing how these episodes land for you! Have a beautiful week, and I’ll see you next time.
