In this episode of the #FindYourSPARK Podcast, Jena shares some personal insights and experiences that have allowed her to navigate relationships, conflicts and life with greater ease. Understanding separate realities gives us greater understanding and empathy towards others in that it opens our eyes to everyone's individual experiences. Listen as Jena shares stories about hamburgers and soap - two stories that otherwise may have been minuscule moments but rather opened Jena's eyes to greater understanding and compromise.

As Mari and Makayla spend the week at the NCJFCJ Conference in Boston showcasing our Insight to Well-Being Program, we found it only fitting to bring this throwback podcast episode back! In this episode of the #FindYourSPARK Podcast, Jena and Mari speak with Jordan Brimlow of Operation Barnabas about the impact that SPARK’s local community programs have had on his life. Jordan offers wonderful insights as he shares about his life as a father, business owner, and community leader, while reflecting on his past experiences with addiction and incarceration. As an Insight to Well-Being graduate, Jordan is able to connect his commitment to change to the awareness of his mind that he gained. Jordan shares words of advice and hope to those who may be struggling with their own circumstances and reminds listeners that anything is possible when you let your SPARK guide you.
