Welcome to The bridge podcast

"Gabe Beaver is a current college student at BGSU who is the host of “The Bridge” podcast. His mindset on life, success, and purpose differentiates himself from others his age, and boy do I LOVE having conversations with this kid!

Gabe and I discuss his upbringing and why he is the way he is today. We go over his core values, where he got them from, and the importance of having a set of values to navigate through life. He touches on the unique back story of his parents and the challenges they had to go through in their lives and how that’s impacted his mindset towards his own challenges.

We even got to talk a little about his TEDX talk and the curveball he got thrown just a day before his speech. Gabe and I also talk about the importance of being authentic while balancing social media with real life and dive into his name “Gabriel” and what it means to him and his purpose in life.

Gabe’s confidence OOZES out during this conversation and I definitely ended this talk feeling INSPIRED & EXCITED about life! I seriously love this guy and his energy!"

"Do you want to host your own podcast or do a TED Talk? Well, that’s what my guest Gabe Beaver did before he turned 20. In this episode, Gabe talks about a sports injury that was the catalyst to define what he wanted to do in life, the self-care routines that keep him healthy and inspired, how his faith impacts him, and why we should all be doing more of what makes us feel alive.

Highlights:

• How he found his voice, strength, and vulnerability in sharing my own story.
• Why we each have a responsibility to embrace our uniqueness and share our story.
• Why money doesn't matter the way you think it does.
• How to know the difference between days of productivity and days of rest; taking a break allows me to be more productive rather than trying to push through.
• We're called to do 2 things, and that's to love our God, and love our neighbor.
• Chase after big things because that's how you can glorify your God by having these God-sized dreams.
• Do more of the things that make you feel alive."

"In this episode, Haley and guest, Gabe Beaver, chat about living an intentional life day-to-day. Gabe is a psychology major, podcaster, and soon to be author who is passionate about living a fulfilling life. Haley and Gabe discuss their daily practices, intentional decision-making, and passion for seeking answers on the inside rather than outside. Intentional living starts first thing in the morning and carries on throughout the day. This conversation may provide a new perspective to living a full, intentional life. Check out Gabe's podcast and Instagram for more inspiration!"

"Gabe is a fellow podcast host and college student.

This was an insightful chat given the work I'm doing on campus with our students at UT here in Austin.

Some of the things we dive into - the impact of Covid, warped perceptions of 'social health', limiting beliefs, managing distraction and developing resilience."

"YOOOOOOOOO! We are back with some relaxation on the podcast as Gabe talks about some of his tips and tricks to not only destress but also how to make a great podcast with great people. So grab some friends together, get some snacks and get ready because it only gets better from here! Thanks for takin a break with us."
