  • Life-changing podcast!

    I first heard Chip Judd on one of Lisa and John Bevere’s podcast. They played one episode of his “Healthy Boundaries” teachings and I’ve been hooked every since! I love how he presents the gospel in a practical, easy to understand way.. I always leave feeling like “I GOT THIS” 🤙

    I look forward to his weekly encouragement and at least once a month I listen to his teachings on Boundaries, you gotta check that out!!

  • Life changer

    Pastor Chip serves as a overseer to Freedom Church where I am the lead Pastor, he is a friend to Connie and me and has helped us develop a stronger marriage and he has been a life changer for me on the way I process pain, truth and life in general. Can’t recommend this podcast more!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is it Depression.... Or Something Else?
Q: Is there a medical approach that therapy alone cannot fix?
Yes. The discussion highlights brain-based treatments like ERP, TMS, and deep brain stimulation as crucial options for patients who don't respond fully to therapy alone, especially in severe OCD or depression.
Unlocking Your Brain: The Role of Dopamine
Q: How important is early diagnosis of ADHD?
Early diagnosis of ADHD is crucial as it allows individuals to understand their profiles and the areas where they need support.
Unlocking Your Brain: The Role of Dopamine
Q: What makes ADHD medication unique?
ADHD medication helps the brain access enough dopamine, enabling better focus and organization but does not magically resolve all issues.
Understanding the Spectrum of Autism
Q: What do you mean by reclaiming your nervous system?
Reclaiming my nervous system means learning to live from safety instead of survival, anticipating expectations for autistic women.
Understanding the Spectrum of Autism
Q: What is autism?
Chip attempts to define autism but is educated by Jen that it's a different way of experiencing and processing the world.
