• A Sister Convo About Personal Growth, FINSTA’s & Calling People Out On Their Shxt
    Jul 18 2022

    WELCOME TO SEASON 2 OF THE BYT PODCAST!

     

    I decided the theme for Season 2 is BEING REAL -- for this episode there was no better way to be real than have a real conversation with my “literal” younger sister, Ana. A glorified GenZ-er, world traveler and self care enthusiast, join us in a funny conversation about our toxic traits, personal growth, depression, FINSTA’s, self-care, frequencies and a lot more, this is probably my longest podcast yet but girl, we had a lot of catching up to do! This is also the first podcast episode that I video recorded portions of so I’m excited to edit those and share them with you later. Enjoy!

  • Your Mission, Mindfulness & Mu’u Mu’u’s with Marion Jones
    Jan 28 2022

    Aloha BYT’s,

    Today, I talk to Marion Jones of The Mu’u Mu’u Library who is a dear friend of mine. We have a conversation about sustainable fashion, honing in on your life’s mission and making prayer a part of your daily life.

    Marion and I met a few years ago and connected on our love for learning, entrepreneurship and God. You get an inside on all three and our relationship in this catchup between sisters. I’ve always respected her drive and her love for helping locals thrive. I hope it gives you a delightful insight into Marion’s vision for the Mu’u Mu’u Library and the future. 

     

    Thanks for listening, 

    Anela

  • You’ll Be Okay Here - Faith & Doubt
    Jan 19 2022

    Hello Beloved Young Things, 

    This episode is about “how I fight my battles.” These battles are mostly spiritual or in my mind or both. We get real about wrestling with my faith while trying to encourage others in theirs. I want to open the conversation to be honest with our questions about AND to God. I also share a bit about why, although life is still hard now, it’s lighter because I’ve welcomed God into my life. 

    I encourage you to be honest with yourself about questions you have for God. Go deep within, reach far and wide for answers.

    Never stop seeking truth and truth will come. 

     

    Thank you, 

    Anela

  • Are You Suffering or Being Refined?
    Dec 5 2021

    Aloha Beloved Young Thing :) 

    This episode shares biblical reminders about the process of being refined. I’ve been feeling the weight of the world on my own shoulders but also seeing it on the shoulders of a lot of my loved ones. It’s been coined a “trying time” right now. Is it possible God is refining you through putting you under more pressure than you expected? It is possible God is putting you through hardships to clear out things that no longer serve you? 

    I believe he’s taking me to a better place through my suffering and I want to share the encouragement that he may be doing the exact thing to you. 

     

    Wishing you peace (in the chaos),

    Anela

  • From Hustled To Humbled
    Nov 21 2021

    Hi BYT, 

    Do you feel like you're constantly hustling or working yourself to the bone? Are you spending time running around like a chicken with your head cut off? I've been there! Heck, I was just there a few weeks ago. 

    God wants us to know that humbling ourselves to his way and his plan is a far better idea than hustling to get to the next step in your plan. 

    This episode and the verses inside it remind me to slow down and embody the tree in Psalm 1. 

    Love,

    Anela

  • 3 Ways To Discern Spiritual Dreams
    Nov 19 2021

    Hello BYT,

    In this episode I'm sharing some of my spiritual dreams and how you can easily determine whether or not your dream was from God or from your own mind. Dreams that speak directly to our spirit or seem to be messages from God can leave us with more questions than answers, this episode speaks on what to do in order to get those answers. 

    Humans have been trying to figure out dreams for so long but with faith, we are reminded that God uses dreams to speak to us, too, so we don't have to figure them out all on our own. 

    Happy sleeping, resting and recharging!
