Santa, Stuffed Puppies, And Why Feelings Matter | (Episode 356)
We explore how imagination shapes kindness, faith, and mental health, from childhood wonder to adult service. Stories of community giving, a ballpark act of presence, and mission work remind us that small choices can carry big meaning.
• imagination as a driver of ambition and empathy
• navigating adult barriers without abandoning dreams
• centering faith and meaning over consumerism
• turning a tree festival purchase into triple impact
• staying present with a stranger at a ballgame
• mission work, refugees, and practical compassion
• protecting children’s wonder and timing the truth
• therapy as strength and finding the right clinician
