Author: Melinda Patrick November 13, 2024 Duration: 44:29

Hey friend, are you feeling anxious about the holidays? Do you find yourself wondering how to handle difficult moments in family functions? 

I imagine you want to show up well for your family and friends at the Thanksgiving table or gatherings during Christmas.  You wouldn't be here if you didn't. 

But, let's be honest. It can oftentimes be difficult when there is division and pain in our lives.

We aren't powerless, though.

We may not can control others but we can control ourselves. 

In this episode of The Bridge Between Us, coach, author and podcast host, Alicia Michelle, joins Melinda Patrick. 

Drawing from Alicia Michelle's personal and professional experience, they unpack 3 steps you can take that will set you up for success in relationships over the days ahead. 

Listeners will discover:

*the importance of acknowledging where you are emotionally

*how to lean into God's clarity for situations

*you have the power to choose where you want to emotionally dwell

It's not too late to gain emotional confidence!

Melinda Patrick hosts The Bridge Between Us: A Guide For Christian Parents Navigating the LGBTQ Conversation, a space created for those navigating one of family life's most complex and emotional journeys. This podcast speaks directly to the moment a parent learns their child identifies as LGBTQ-a moment often met with a whirlwind of love, fear, faith questions, and a deep desire to preserve connection. Rather than offering simplistic answers, these conversations explore the nuanced tension between deeply held religious beliefs and the unconditional love for a child. Melinda brings empathy and understanding to the heartbreak and confusion, assuring parents they are not alone in their struggle. Each episode delves into practical aspects of building and maintaining that essential bridge of relationship, discussing what it means to embody both grace and truth in daily interactions. The dialogue here is for parents seeking to move beyond fear or isolation, looking for a compassionate path forward that honors their faith and their child. By focusing on real stories and thoughtful perspectives, this podcast becomes a vital resource for strengthening family bonds during a time of profound change. It’s about finding a way to walk together, even when the path feels unfamiliar.
