Journey Principles Radio Podcast

The Blind Blogger, Maxwell Ivey, is our guest in today’s episode of The Journey Principles Radio Show. Max, is a force to be reckoned with. Legally blind and encountering adversity at what seems to be every turn in his life, Max exemplifies determination and perseverance and we are so excited to have him share his inspiring story of transformation with us on the show today. We are talking today about the choice to Whine or Grind. It's really easy for all of us to get into the habit of complaining about our situation, of making mountains out of mole hills without actually doing anything to constructively create change.

Max’s personal story is enough to motivate anyone to jump off their seats and start tackling their “to do” list, but he takes it a step further for us here at JP Radio. Max shares with u

We have an esteemed special guest on our show today, Dr. Jason Newsome, President Dayspring Counseling Center in Charleston, West Virginia.

In this episode Dr. Newsome walks us through his journey of abuse and what it took for him to conquer his own thinking and reclaim his life.

There are 5 Influences which shape our thoughts, viewpoints, actions and sometimes outcomes. The question is, who's in the driver seat? On today's show we dive into those 5 Influences: Parental, Environmental, Relational, Situational, and Subliminal with our good friend Taanya Sarma. Taanya was raised in a VERY influential family, but not in a way that allowed her freedom to be who she was meant to be.
