Part 2 of this series continues to offer encouragement in friendship. I'm sharing my best advice on how to make new friends, which seems to be a challenge to many of us in our adult years. Music: "For Love"  by Jeff Kaale 

Friendship requires more than one episode, so I'm making this one a series. We're going to start with ourselves and  some encouragement on how we can all be better friends.  Follow me on Instagram  (@janaymcwilborn) and ask me your friendship questions or share your friendship struggles. Intro Music by Jeff Kaale

It's a true Throwback Thursday as I encourage you with some advice from my childhood!  With all of the anger and ugliness of this world, I think we could all benefit from connecting with other people in the simplest way.Music: For Love by Jeff Kaale

An Instagram post I shared in April revealed that I'm not the only who has struggled to love their body. Today, I'm encouraging us all to start loving  the body we have today instead of waiting to love the "ideal" body we keep trying to acquire.  

Mother's Day is so painful for so many, and I never forget that now.  I wanted to share an updated version of a post I wrote a few years ago on my blog for those of you struggling on this upcoming Mother's Day. 

Why is it so hard to ask for help? We all need it; we all give it, so how can we get over the hump and ask for the help we need?Music: For Love by Jeff Kaale

It can be so hard to say no to things sometimes, especially good things, but the fact is, we can't do everything, so we have to learn to say no.  This is  something I've been thinking about a lot lately and wanted to be really vulnerable and share with you, my struggles with saying no so you can be encouraged on your own journey!Music: For Love by Jeff Kaale

I'm back with Season 2 of A Drop of Encouragement, and yes it has been a while, but I have that much more encouragment for you, starting with some encouragement for those of you struggling with depression.  In this episode, I'm sharing from my own recent experience and hopefully encouraging you as I have been encouraged to press on and find hope. Music: For Love by Jeff KaaleFollow Janay on IG:  @janaymcwilbornBook Janay to speak at your next event:  janaymcdonaldwilborn.com

Back in December, I felt compelled to start 2021 talking about grief. I didn't anticipate that I would be hit with more grief while trying to record this episode, but as per usual, God does some of His best work through me while He works on me.  I hope this blesses you, and that you'll check back in for part 2 of this episode. Music: Tropic by Jeff KaaleUse coupon code JANAY and save at CleanSkinClub.com

Have you been counting down the days to 2021, hoping to see the problems of 2020 come to an end?  I want to offer some perspective and encouragement to your new year expectations! 

Sometimes our best encouragement can come through our silence.  During the holiday season, as we spend time with friends and family virtually or in person, let's be careful about what we do say, and be aware of what we should not say! Music: Tropic by Jeff KaaleUse coupon code JANAY to save at CleanSkinClub.com

Yes, the holiday of giving thanks may have past, but a mindset of gratitude makes a difference in our lives every single day.  In this episode, I talk about the relationship between gratitude and encouragement and how we can encourage ourselves not just today but in days to come. Music: Tropic by Jeff KaaleUse coupon code JANAY to save at CleanSkinClub.com

Encouragement has been powerful in my life, and the heart and soul of this podcast is to share that with you and empower you to share it with others.  In this first episode, I share why I'm starting this new venture with you. Music: Tropic by Jeff KaaleUse coupon code "JANAY" to save on CleanSkinClub.com
