When Life Gives You Lemons
Welcome to the When Life Gives You Lemons podcast hosted by Sam Brinkman! In this personal and professional development podcast, we'll talk about the "lemons" life has given me and how I turned them into "lemonade." From childhood and religious trauma to mental illness and abusive relationships to failure and burn out, we'll discuss the ways that these "lemons" can lead to our growth as an individual and a leader. Let's make lemonade!
When Life Gives You Lemons
When You're in a Healthy Relationship
Last episode was all about the “lemon” of abuse, pain, and heartache. But then he came along - a cool glass of lemonade.
Relationships that are built to last don’t just land in your lap though, they take work. Tune in to hear how we’ve developed a healthy relationship by healing from our pasts, understanding ourselves on a deep, personal level, and consciously choosing one another every day. I'll talk about how I utilized the 5 Love Languages and The Enneagram to understand myself and my partner better as well as tools that help us stay connected.
Let's Make Lemonade!
