Ep. 3.10 : Get Out of Your Head with Jennie Allen

We’re kicking off a new series this March focused on intentionality.

I can’t think of a better way to get started than with Jennie Allen encouraging us to be intentional in identifying the toxic thoughts in our lives. 

Jennie says “the greatest spiritual battle of our generation is being fought between our ears.” And with an average of 30,000 thoughts a day going through our minds, it’s easy to see how quickly those negative thoughts can have a huge impact on our lives.

On today’s program, Jennie Allen, Kay Wyma, and I jump in the car for a carpool podcast of sorts. 

We talk about:

  • identifying our negative thought patterns,
  • acknowledging that we are in charge of our thoughts; they are not in charge of us,
  • the science behind our thoughts,
  • and remembering that God gives us the power to confront and overcome the toxic ones.

It’s a fun interview you won’t want to miss. We even drove through McDonald’s for fries during our chat.

We’re so fortunate to have Jennie Allen on Pardon the Mess. She’s a gifted communicator and the founder and visionary behind the IF:Gathering, an organization that equips women to know God more deeply and disciple others. She’s a speaker, author, podcaster, and much more.
