Permission to Change, Part 1

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 12:00:00 GMT

You have permission to change.

The hard part is that when we change, it can unsettle relationships. People often relate to us based on who we have been, while God is inviting us into who we are becoming.

Can you relate? If so, this episode is for you!

It's time to explore, from multiple angles, how to give ourselves permission to change without becoming selfish and self-absorbed, reactive, or even a bit rebellious.

We'll hold space for exploring how to move forward while still showing empathy and compassion for the people adjusting to our transformation.

Yes, this is another episode coming straight from my lived experience, which I'm bringing to you because I wish I had this perspective a long time ago. So tune into this first part to hear what I've learned and then come back for Part 2, where I'll unpack for you a framework for assessing the seasons and stages of your transformation through a faith integrated with neuropyschological approach for your emotional, relational, and spiritual growth process.

ADHD in Women and Girls: Why This is Not a Fad But a Cry for Help and Better Care

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 12:00:00 GMT

If you have ever felt like you are capable and caring, but constantly behind, scattered, overwhelmed by anxiety that fights against your faith, or defeated by being accused that you're too _____ (sensitive, emotional, inconsiderate, bossy, etc), then this episode is for you.

We are talking about ADHD in women and girls, and why this isn't a fad but a cry for help and better care.

ADHD has gone undiagnosed in girls for far too long, dismissed by the stereotype of hyperactivity as it is seen in boys. In fact, one might say that where girls are underdiagnosed, boys are overdiagnosed. But for this episode, we focus on how ADHD presents in a female, why it is often missed, what is actually happening in the brain, and the practical supports that can make everyday life feel more manageable. Consider this your high-level overview seasoned with hope and encouragement to continue the exploration of ADHD and how it may be affecting you or the women and girls in your life.

If this resonates, share it with a friend who has been carrying shame or confusion. There is hope, and there are next steps.

Limits, Loss, and Holding Eternal Hope

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 13:00:00 GMT

If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I just be over this?” this one is for you. This episode of the StableMinded Podcast is a real-time, from-the-heart conversation about the roller coaster of emotions that come when we experience the limits of our humanity, the challenges of grief and loss, and what it means to hold the hope of eternity in mind.

In this episode, we talk about:

The confusing “both-and” of grief and relief
The grief we don’t name enough: accepting people’s limitations
The tension of living between what is and what we want

Sometimes what we are craving is actually a longing for heaven-on-earth.

When we step back and see our current situation from that vantage point, we're better set up to embrace our limits, release others from unrealistic expectations, process the loss and grief that comes both in life and death, and shift our perspective towards remembering that this life is temporary.

This is our journey from Eden to Eternity, where longing for beauty, perfection, and redemption beckons us onward.

Even so, we live in the not yet.

So if you’re walking through loss, disappointment, estrangement, or a relationship that will not become what you hoped, lean in and be encouraged.

And be ready to jot down the journal questions near the end to help you name what you need, release what you cannot control, and ask God for the grace to live your “new normal.”

Strategies for Living with Purpose, Part 1

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 14:00:00 GMT

Have you ever wondered why you process life the way you do? Why do certain approaches to healing work for some people but not for you?

In this episode, Lisa Pulliam explores the first strategy for living with purpose: embracing your unique wiring and design. Drawing from Psalm 139 and the Highlands Ability Battery, Lisa examines how understanding our God-given design is essential to discovering and fulfilling our purpose. She emphasizes that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to healing or finding purpose, and invites listeners to explore what living with God's purpose looks like in their lives today.

Forever Changed by Love and Loss

Tue, 27 Jan 2026 13:00:00 GMT

When Lisa Pulliam, founder of StableMinded, launched the Liberated Equestrian Podcast in 2025, its path was intentionally open-handed—guided more by faith than by a fixed plan. However, as Season 1 came to a close in the fall of 2025, a clear pivot began to emerge. What followed was not simply a creative or professional shift but a deeper realignment of calling and vision, ultimately resulting in the vision and launch of this podcast.

Lisa had no idea of the profound season of transition that would still be ahead of her—one that weaves together faith, neuropsychology, and the equestrian journey—which not only clarified the pivot but pressed it into motion. That is why this episode is a bit unexpected for the StableMinded Podcast, yet part of the story being written in real time. And it is always why you'll find the same episode released as an epilogue episode on the Liberated Equestrian Podcast.

Recorded not long after losing her beloved Kodiak Jack, through the rawness of Lisa's pain, you will find with her the courage to embrace unwanted endings while welcoming new beginnings, recognizing how suffering can refine calling when God meets us with presence and purpose.

Yes, this episode serves as a tribute to the ways love and loss shape us, even when the road forward feels uncertain. Marking both a closing and an opening—honoring what has been while stepping forward into what’s next—you'll be invited to continue the journey beyond this chapter with hope for what is next.

No matter where you find yourself today, Lisa provides a framework for moving forward with her, exploring the evolving work of StableMinded, where healing and growth are pursued through the integration of faith with neuropyschology. She rallies the battle cry for equestrians and non-equestrians alike to catch the vision of becoming StableMinded and living life with purpose.

Equipped: Plan Life with Purpose

Tue, 20 Jan 2026 13:00:00 GMT

How many of us start the new year off gung-ho? We set goals. We make promises. We tell ourselves: This is the year!

And then, real life shows up. We're sidelined, distracted, discouraged, and can't even remember our New Year's resolutions!

In this episode of the StableMinded Podcast, Lisa Pulliam names what many people experience by the second week of January, known as “Quitter’s Day” — the point when New Year’s resolutions lose steam and become a forgotten memory.

But instead of doubling down on willpower (or starting over with another list of fixes), Lisa offers a gentler, steadier invitation: move from resolution living to intentional living.

Resolutions are usually built on a burst of motivation. They are rarely built on a clear sense of purpose. When our plans fall apart, it is easy to feel discouraged, behind, or even ashamed.

Lisa encourages listeners to trade quick-fix motivation for a grounded process — one that grows stability over time through prayerful reflection, aligned priorities, and realistic goals.

After 18 years of practicing this in her own life, Lisa shares the framework that has become her “plumb line,” the personal planning resource and Bible-based mini-course she created called Equipped: Plan Life with Purpose, which you can find at StableMinded On Demand.
