By My Own Lights
Welcome, my name is Rachael and I am the creator and host of By My Own Lights, a podcast where inside thoughts are shared with the outside world. I am a verbal processor. I like reflecting on moments in my life to find the light in it all, and my hope for this podcast is that it inspires you to find the light in yours. Sometimes the lessons we learned in adversity or in joy are just too precious to keep to ourselves.
The lessons and stories shared here are not prescriptive, the world needs all kinds of kinds and I encourage you to live a life according to your own lights. This podcast is a journey through one mind, one perspective, one life that loves Jesus, one person who doesn't have it all figured out. Take a listen and if it happens to inspire you in the slightest bit, don't be shy, give it a like and a follow.

Light in Darkness
When a project for my kid's first grade class turns into my very own life reminder. Darkness is a scary place. It doesn't matter whether it is physical darkness or emotional darkness, we respond the same ways. We become slow to act, question what is true, and snuff out the light inside of us, instead of turning it on full blast to flush out the darkness.
In this episode, you'll get a few reminders on what you are equipped with and how to be light for yourself and other's.
