Welcome to the IGNITE Impact podcast!  I am Tracy Purdy and I am so thankful that you have tuned in to check out our new little corner of the digital world!  A little about me…..I am a wife to Adam of 16 years and have 4 beautiful children that are true miracles. I am an Arkansas native, but we now live in one of the most beautiful places on the Earth, the Panhandle of Florida and we LOVE IT. This podcast has been a long time coming, though I was never really sure of the avenue to present this to the world.  A book, a blog, social media….I have had so many friends encouraging me to pursue something in this arena and even have friends who have podcasts that have truly inspired me along the way!

A little background on IGNITE Impact…..  Like I said in our intro…. I believe that people are placed into our lives at every step in our life journey to be an integral part of our story.  Here on the podcast we will talk with individuals who have Influenced me, helped me Grow, Nurtured me, Inspired me, Transformed my thinking and Enriched my life and will hopefully do the same for you!    We will be talking about a variety of subjects, Whether it be Marriage and Relationships, IVF and Infertility, Miscarriage, Parenting, Adoption, Faith, Talking about Difficult questions, Fitness and Health journey and more!  We will be covering it it all!

I heard a story this past week that helped confirmed the purpose behind this show.  It was about a professor that gave a balloon to all of his students, had them inflate it and write their name on it.  They then threw ALL of their balloons in the hallway.  The professor mixed up all the balloons.  The students were given 5 minutes to find their own balloon, in which, despite a hectic search, no one found their balloons….BUT THEN the professor told the students to take the first balloon that they found and hand it to the person whose name was written on it.  Within 5 minutes, everyone had their own balloon.  The professor then said to the students: “ These balloons are like happiness, influence and guidance.  We will never find it if everyone is looking for their own.  But if we care about other people’s journeys, we will find ours too.

I am on a mission to help wake up your senses to those people that are surrounding you on a daily basis that are placed in your life journey to make a huge impact in your life!  We are here to IGNITE that passion, inspiration, courage and hope in your life!  We are placed on this Earth for a purpose and go through situations in our lives that can teach so many others about how you learned to process hard, challenging things, how you developed the courage to take the next step forward and what you have learned from others. Let us be a faithful steward of the life God has given you. Let’s choose to Make the most of our experiences and Don’t keep them to ourselves. Let’s Be willing to share the lessons God has taught you.

Here, we will work to IGNITE that flame deep in your souls to become a light to shine to others in this world.  My friends and I will encourage you to challenge yourself,  to search for purpose, and passion to live the life that you are called to embrace.

The people on this show have certainly made an impact in my life and I am excited to see how they bless your lives as well.

I hope to have you join us next time! Until Then!
