Through real-life stories about faith, finances, marriage, and calling, she shares how God moves when we stay faithful one more day, pray one more prayer, and take one more step forward.

In this episode, our host Kyia invites listeners into her marathon journey, not just the miles, but the moments that shaped her heart along the way. With honesty, warmth, and gratitude, she reflects on the highs and lows, the lessons of endurance and surrender, and the beauty of running by faith, literally and spiritually. This isn’t just a race recap; it’s a story about trusting God’s timing, finding strength in weakness, and discovering that the real victory isn’t crossing the finish line, but who you become along the journey.
In this episode, our host Kyia brings her soon to be husband, Jake to sit down for one of their most fun (and honest) episodes yet. Jake and Kyia spill their wedding predictions, share behind-the-scenes moments of wedding planning, and reflecting on how God’s hand has been woven into every detail. From guessing who’s going to cry first and who will absolutely dominate the dance floor, to the pressure of chasing a “perfect” wedding in a social media world, they get real about what it’s been like to plan a Christ-centered celebration. They go into detail on a few honeymoon plans, and what it looked like to trust God’s timing — especially after Jake once said he didn’t want to get married until 26. This episode is full of laughter, heartfelt moments, and a few juicy wedding-day secrets — all pointing back to the peace that comes when you let God write the story.
In this episode, our host Kyia opens up about what it really means to slow down and be present in the exact moment God has you in. As a bride-to-be, marathon runner, and woman of faith, she shares how easy it can be to rush through once-in-a-lifetime seasons — and how learning to be still has changed everything.
Through biblical wisdom, personal reflection, and practical faith habits, Kyia reminds listeners that presence isn’t just peaceful — it’s obedient. She speaks from her own daily moments of gratitude and unpacks how to find joy and contentment in the “now.”
This episode is an invitation to breathe, to notice God in the small things, and to remember: you’re living the moment you once prayed for.
Proverbs 4:23 says, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”
In this episode, our host, Kyia unpacks what it really means to guard your heart—not by walling it off, but by protecting the source of your life. Through biblical truth, practical guardrails, and powerful one-liners, she shows how guarding your heart leads not to less love, but to purer love and lasting purpose.
In this episode, our host Kyia Mochitani talks about how Chicago Marathon is just two weeks away... She shares an honest update on her latest training block. From the high of an 18-mile run that felt effortless to the struggle of a 22-mile run that tested her limits, she reflects on both the physical and spiritual lessons learned along the way.
In this episode, listeners will hear:
- How this training block compares to past seasons
- The toughest physical and mental challenges and how she worked through them
- The daily habits that have kept her grounded
- How Romans 12:12 has anchored her perspective: “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer”
- The ways God has used marathon training to build endurance in her life and faith
This conversation offers encouragement to anyone walking through a “training block” of their own—whether in running, faith, or everyday life—reminding them that perseverance is possible when Jesus is at the center.
In this episode, our host, Kyia Mochitani unpacks the question: How do we actually live out and walk by faith in today’s world? With culture growing darker and sin not just tolerated but celebrated, the call for bold, uncompromising faith has never been more urgent. Drawing from Romans 1, she explores what happens when society rejects God, why revival always begins in the secret place, and how believers can practically walk in faith—through prayer, holiness, courage, and consistent obedience.
This conversation is both a wake-up call and an encouragement: faith isn’t passive belief, it’s an active lifestyle. From speaking truth in love, to standing firm against cultural compromise, to being a light that shines in the darkest spaces, Kyia lays out what it means to live out the gospel every single day.
Listeners will walk away challenged to take one bold step of faith this week, reminded that small faith in a big God changes everything. Revival doesn’t start out there—it starts with you.
In this episode, our host Kyia Mochitani sits down with her fiancé Jake Stammer to challenge some of the most common myths people believe about love, marriage, and faith. They share raw stories from their own relationship, unpack lessons God has taught them, and offer a perspective that might flip what you thought you knew about commitment on its head. Honest, heartfelt, and rooted in Scripture, this conversation isn’t about surface-level advice—it’s about digging into truths that can actually transform the way you see love, conflict, and covenant.
In this episode, Kyia opens up about the silent side of pornography addiction—the part often carried by girlfriends, fiancées, and wives in silence. She shares her own journey of walking through betrayal, insecurity, and grief, and unpacks how hidden sin breaks trust in a relationship. Through honesty and biblical truth, Kyia explains what rebuilding trust really looks like, why forgiveness is more than just moving on, and how God carried her through the healing process. This is a raw, hope-filled conversation for every woman who has ever felt unseen or unheard in the shadow of pornography addiction.
In this episode, our host Kyia dives deep into the beauty and challenge of true friendship. She explores how our culture has become too comfortable with self-preservation, often avoiding sacrifice or inconvenience for the sake of others. Through a biblical and practical lens, she unpacks why serving and showing up for friends matters and why a self-focused mindset keeps us from the closeness we were created for. Kyia shares what it really takes to build meaningful, lasting relationships and reminds listeners that life isn’t meant to be lived only for ourselves—it’s meant to be shared, invested, and poured into others.
