Our first guest, mental health counselor and advocate Faith Broussard Cade, embarked on a path to self-discovery following a traumatic brain injury. Diagnosed with post-concussive syndrome after a severe car accident, her journey underscored the critical importance of self-care and the necessity of prioritizing mental well-being in today\u2019s fast-paced world. Later in the episode, we\u2019ll hear from Hannah Brencher\u2014an author and educator\u2014who delves into the impact of constant digital connectivity on mental health and personal well-being, drawing from her own experiences. Hannah shares her journey toward unplugging, which began as a personal revelation on her birthday and led her to set a goal of 1,000 hours of disconnection over the course of a year.   Links, Products, and Resources Mentioned: Jesus Calling Podcast Jesus Calling Jesus Always Jesus Listens Past interview: Dusty & Erin Loechner Upcoming interview: Josh Baldwin Jesus Calling commemorative edition   Faith Broussard Cade post-concussive syndrome  Baby-Sitters Club   Hardy Boys  The Boxcar Children Dr. Seuss University of the South www.fleurdelisspeaks.com Shine Bright Anyway   Hannah Brencher The Unplugged Hours www.jesuscalling.com\/blog   Interview Quotes: \u201cI had a decision to make. Do I keep up the facade that I've always kept of being the superwoman who can always do everything and be everything to everyone? Or do I give up that facade for the hope of being able to have a future?\u201d - Faith Broussard Cade  \u201cWhat was supposed to be fifteen days of me kind of jump-starting my own healing journey has now turned into six and a half years of writing notes and encouraging this community collective healing journey for a lot of other people, not just myself.\u201d - Faith Broussard Cade \u201cI found my hero. She's been inside of me the entire time, and I am so proud of who she has become.\u201d - Faith Boussard Cade \u201cJust because it's not a good fit for someone else doesn't negate the goodness\u2013the innate goodness\u2013of who I am and who I try to be, and how I try to show up for others.\u201d - Faith Boussard Cade \u201cWhat I really wanted to do in that unplugged year was just be present to it for myself, for that part of myself that was exhausted, for that part of myself that needed to get back these vital parts of herself.\u201d - Hannah Brencher \u201cWhat would it really look like to check in with myself, and what would it really look like to take care of myself at the end of a long day?\u201d - Hannah Brencher  \u201cI can actually experience peace just by taking these little ordinary moments throughout my day and seeing them as an opportunity to meet with God and hear from God.\u201d - Hannah Brencher   \u201cHe's a God of peace. He's a God of goodness. He's a God that wants good for your life, and He's a God that just wants you to be near. Not for any other motive, but the fact that He loves you and He wants to be with you, and He wants to show you daily life through a lens that maybe you haven't looked through before.\u201d - Hannah Brencher  ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!
