Welcome back to Tam's World Podcast!This episode is a testament to what happens when you choose to live outside the Word of God and go your own way. These past couple of months have been a rollercoaster but God is faithful and fulfills His promises. Join host Tamarind Nicole as she reflects on the decisions she made that led her into the wilderness and into a season that was outside of God's Word. Transparency and honesty is key when coming out the wilderness. It first begins with acceptance of wrongs and allowing God to show you the direction needed in order to get back into His will. Sending love to anyone coming out or desiring to come out the wilderness.

Dating can be dangerous when we haven't taken the time with God in our single season to prepare us. Problems arise and we find ourselves unequipped to handle arguments and situations in the way God instructs us to.  Due to lack of discipline in different aspects we are quick to point the blame at our partner for the pain they have caused. The best solution can be found by getting into your Word and doing some self reflection. Taking a step away from the issue can show you that you are a part of the problem and can only blame yourself for the damage that has been done.  Taking time to apologize, admit your wrongs and forgive can solve many problems. Daily accountability in actions and controlling our responses to stressful situations can make all the difference. Join host Tamarind Nicole as she gets personal with her own personal struggles in relationships and how she only has herself to blame.

Welcome to the first episode of Tam's World  Relationship Series! Dating and relationships are hard. They can be made even harder when either one or both parties have not taken time in their single season to develop individually. Our character is who we TRULY are, not the person we portray ourself to be. Dating can be convenient because naturally as humans we desire to have a partner. Before deciding to date and take a friendship to the next level, it is important to look deep into ourselves and ask some hard questions in order to determine if we are setting ourselves up for success.  Always looking to God for wisdom it is important to first focus on your relationship with Christ so that He can create you into the person your partner deserves. Join host Tamarind Nicole as she evaluates herself and ways to develop into an almost perfect partner, focusing on character over convenience.

How fruitful are your friends?Evaluating your friendships is crucial when focusing on your relationship with God. Our community and friends are what can easily influence the places we go, decisions we make, and activities we indulge ourselves in. A fruitful friend should be kind, patient, forgiving, and be able to have self control. At times it can be hard to let go of long time friendships because of all the memories but if that friend is not pointing you into a positive direction; are they really your friend? Join host Tamarind Nicole as she relates her experiences in current and past friendships and how to best associate with people you find yourself involved with. God should always be in the center in order to have a fruitful, meaningful friendship.

Focus defined is, "the center of interest or activity". Evaluating where we center our focus can show us directly why certain things take place in our lives. Centering your focus on The Word of God and what He instructs us to do can excel our  lives and minds. Focus is free, as we renew our minds daily, we have the opportunity to constantly reshape our habits, experiences, and positions in life.  Allowing the bible to show us how to decide what decisions to make, we can guide our focus into our purpose.  Join Tamarind Nicole as she introduces scientifically proven ways on how our brains can be transformed simply by focusing and following The Word of God.

When speaking on being in church some people will confuse purpose of The Church and the people in the church. No matter your experience,  we all have to lead with the understanding that God is working on us all individually. If you consider yourself a believer, there are tasks God has called for us as The Church in order to lead ourselves and others closer to Christ. Join Tamarind Nicole as she evaluates the difference between The Church and Church people.

Choosing to go God's way and living right requires checks and balances. You have to check yourself, your actions, and the people around you to ensure that your life aligns with God's word. This requires hard conversations and even hard times even looking in the mirror. Giving your life to Christ is never promised to be easy but knowing that God has the final say, you can walk in confidence and acceptance of His Word and the direction that He is going to take you. Join host Tamarind Nicole as we enter a new season of new life, new blessings, and new struggles, always trusting that God is making a way.

Every day we are given the opportunity to write our own story. With every decision there is a right and a wrong move to make. Understanding that God gives us free will we choose whether we want to follow the path God instructs us to go, or follow the path that we want to go. Join Tamarind Nicole as she reflects on the year and the decisions she made that impacted her trip around the sun. Looking forward to the new year and leaving old habits behind let this episode be a personal journal of how good and bad decisions can end up making or breaking your story.

Life and time goes on so fast that at times we can miss the mark on our day to day  schedules. Whether spending family time, investing in personal growth, or maintaining your love life; we all find ourselves missing the mark in some areas. It is important to always stay present in the time you have and to make the most out of it.  It is best to not get consumed by the troubles in life that we become too obsessed with one goal. Remaining responsible and creating a healthy balance  throughout life, will always lead to success.

Some roads are meant to be traveled just you and God.  Moving across the country is hard but you faith in God and the process is what can keep you going. Remembering the end goal and recognizing the reason why you make decisions can inspire you even in the hard times. Join host Tamarind Nicole as she reflects and begins her new journey as she moves from California to Atlanta.  Dealing with a change in relationship status, finances,  and living situations, here in Tam's World we are grateful and looking forward to what God has in store!

Relationships are already hard as it is. When choosing to partner with someone in life we find ourselves in love and wanting to feel more connected. When two people see a future together they will choose to take that next step and get married joining two people as one. In some cases though, one partner can have a desire for marriage while the other partner is not ready for marriage. When this happens, the partner that is ready for marriage may decide to give the other an ultimatum. Marry me or it's over! If you have found yourself in this position tune in and join Tamarind Nicole as she dissects the aspects of marriage, ultimatums, and her personal experience of giving an ultimatum herself.

When life happens we have the choose to roll with it or let it take a hold of us. Choosing to accept God for who He is and humbling yourself can allow Him to work through you and lead by example. It is okay to take a break and regroup. Sometimes, due to circumstances we can backslide and fall back into temptation. The bible instructs us to repent and turn our life around. Join Tamarind Nicole as she navigates through her spiritual journey and transparency on her relationship with God. Faith is not fear, do not allow others to discourage you from your dreams but also accept correction from people and recognize that it can be a message from God.

God's timing is more perfect than anything we could want for ourselves. Join host Tamarind Nicole as she sheds light on her personal experience of having a miscarriage. Even though things do not work out the way we would like for them, it is always important to know that there is light at the end of the tunnel.  Always remain strong and trust that God has greater plans for your life. It is a hard pill to swallow but He will never let us down. Cheers to life!

Friends are always good to have around! I went on a weekend vacation to Vegas for my sister's birthday so tune in to hear all about it! This trip reminded me that no matter what, always enjoy life and to love the people God places around you. Real friends are hard to find so when you do, always show them love, kindness, and respect. Remember that minor set backs make room for major comebacks!

When building relationships with people you can never determine how everything will play out. In a single season, getting to know people comes with the territory. Understanding that not every encounter with a person will play out the way you wanted, it is always important to stay true to yourself and to never settle.  Even when someone may come to you with some uncomfortable topics, growth comes with accepting and hearing the other persons ideas. It takes time but remaining on track and holding yourself accountable, everything will play out perfectly.
