Blunt and Blessed

"As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." Proverbs 27:17

Sal and Bec reflect on their friendship and revisit a few of the themes from their second episode on friendship. A full year into their podcast journey, their friendship has been tested in unexpected ways, reminding them just how important grace, honesty, and self-reflection are.

From Google Maps location sharing and the hurt it caused, to navigating uncomfortable conversations and learning to give each other grace, they unpack what it really means to sharpen one another through the highs and lows of friendship.

Grounded in their faith, they reflect on how Jesus modelled honesty and wasn't afraid to have difficult conversations. If He was willing to speak truth in love, shouldn't we be willing to do the same in our friendships?

And, of course, Sal has a few thoughts about the Proverbs verse that inspired it all… and why she's not exactly a fan.

Not all friendships can be easy! But it can be a place where we grow, challenge one another, learn and become better versions of ourselves.

In this deeply personal episdoe of Blunt and Blessed with Sal and Bec, Bec opens up about one of the most painful and often unspoken experiences many women face, pregnancy loss. With honesty, vulnerability, and courage she shares her own story, the grief that followed and the impact it had on her faith, and sense of self.

Togehter, Sal and Bec, explore the reality of navigating loss in silence, the things people often dont talk about and the importance of creating space for healing, hope and honest conversations. Weather you've experienced pregnancy loss yourself or are supporting someone who has, this episdoe is a reminder that grief doesn't have to be carried alone.

If you're in a stagnant season, this conversation will encourage you to trust, grow, and take your next step forward.

Bec and Sal are back for 2026 with a real, fun chat about New Year's resolutions, goals, faith, and fresh starts... and they don't see it the same way.

Your twenties are messy, confusing, and full of big emotions - but also some of the best years of your life! In this episode, we're looking back at our 20-ish year old selves and sharing the things we wish we'd known then: the silly mistakes, the serious lessons, and the faith that carried us through. We unpack the highs and lows with honesty, laughter, and a reminder that you don't have to have it all figured out, because God's plan is always better than ours.

Friendship isn't always easy, but it's one of God's greatest gifts. As life gets busier with marriage, kids, work, faith, and everything in between, friendships naturally shift. In this episode, we get blunt about the awkward in-betweens of Christian friendship: how to build trust, navigate conflict, and stay real without losing connection. We'll talk about how friendships change as we get older, why it can feel harder to connect, and how to keep building relationships that are life-giving and God-centered.
