In honor of Kristen's 1 year anniversary of her passing. We are republishing a past episode of  “Thursday Thought- Episode 17: Kristen” to the LYTE podcast.   

Kristen is Mike's youngest sister. She passed away suddenly on September 15, 2020. She had just celebrated her 30th & twin boys birthdays three weeks prior.  She possessed many gifts. And one of those was her bright & contagious smile.

This episode is special, a tribute to Kristen, with an amazing message. About a powerful yet simple  gift. That can make a lasting impression in anyone's world. Please listen. Share your gift. It is so easy to do & makes the biggest impact. And Kristen was a master at it.  Be more like Kristen today & tomorrow. In honor of her & her family.

Feel free to share this message. This is exactly what Kristen was all about.

In a snapshot. We make judgements about how a person got there.  It’s so easy to justify our own unhappiness by believing someone else was lucky.  And overlook the hours they spent developing and getting to that snapshot.  The hard moments, hard decisions, and sleepless nights.

In this episode of LYTE, Mike reminds us to look past that snapshot. And what it really took to get to the moment.  The little steps. The little victories.  The tiny insignificant moments. It's more than a snapshot.

"As we get to celebrate the Mothers in our lives. Take a second to reflect. Look at what you do because of her. It’s an important reminder. How one person can truly impact the future of many."

In this episode of LYTE, Mike shares a personal message about his own mother.  Honoring the one that always shined brightly in her children's eyes.  You're gonna need to grab a box of tissues for this one.
