This past week I took my kids on a little road trip. Driving through the open fields and small towns of Wyoming and South Dakota made me think of growing up traveling on road trips with my aunt and uncle. These memories got me thinking about this road trip I was on with my kiddos - what would be their take aways in years to come? But even further, it got me pondering how we remember people and more specifically -  how people will remember us? Perhaps we can better grasp this by asking ourselves: How do we WANT to be remembered?Maya Angelou said, “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” So, how do you want to make people feel - or, in other words, how do you want people to remember YOU?Check out today's episode to learn three important factors to consider when determining how you want to be remembered.If you’d like more assistance in uncovering how you want to be remembered, identifying the obstacles holding you back, or perhaps even diving deeper in learning and building personal awareness -  I’d value the opportunity to work alongside you.

Some years ago my mom and dad were at a restaurant for Sunday lunch when my mom took a sip of her sweet tea only to spit it out and then learn that instead of sugar in that sweet tea, it was pure lye. Fast forward through a trip to the hospital ER, a ride in the life flight helicopter to be admitted into the ICU Burn Unit of a major hospital, and over a week in a coma - my mom miraculously walked out of that hospital weeks later.

According to the 2019-2020 APPA National Pet Owners Survey, 67 percent of U.S. households own a pet and the numbers are only rising due to the surge in pet adoptions during the COVID-19 pandemic which has people spending more time at home. There are many benefits of owning a pet. Forbes reported that owning an animal can, “increase opportunities to exercise, get outside, and socialize. Regular walking or playing with pets can decrease blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and triglyceride levels. and Pets can help manage loneliness and depression by giving us companionship.” I've noticed first hand at the benefit of simply teaching responsibility to my son who has kept a pet fish alive for over a year. So with the rise of pet ownership, and in celebration of National Pet Day, what should we know and consider before buying a pet? Well, today we have with us Deann Shepherd from the Humane Society of Utah to help us walk through what we need to know before buying a pet.Although he was referring to dogs, as American photographer Roger Caras (car-as) said "they are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole."

This Easter is looking a little different than a year ago. There seems to be a glimpse of that light at the end of the tunnel - one might say a ray of Hope. As we reflect on the Easter story found in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John we find a few examples of Hope that we can learn from Easter (otherwise known as Resurrection Day).1- Are you feeling rejected and alone?2 - Who are we to love and forgive?3 - How can we be selfless and hold true to our promises? Easter is a reminder that we can truly face anything in life, rejection, loneliness, heartache, trials, putting others needs first before our own - all because He lives! So friend, whatever you are going through, whatever you are facing or feeling - He’s got you! Chin up, there’s hope. So grateful for these eggamples we find in Easter. Happy resurrection day! Read more about the Easter story:Matthew 28:1-20; Mark 16:1-20; Luke 24:1-49; and John 20:1-21:25Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/hollyshighlights)
