In this episode of Unscripted Conversations, we’re diving deep into a truth that hits home for just about everyone—change is not the enemy.

When life feels turned upside down, it’s easy to think God forgot the plan. But sometimes, the shaking is what sets you free. We’ll talk about how to trust His timing, how to stop fearing transition, and how to see change as proof that you’re still growing.

You’ll walk away with a heart full of peace, a little humor, and a reminder that even when things shift, God’s purpose never does.

Hey y’all, welcome back to Unscripted Conversations with Ashley from SimplyBlessedDesignz.

Comparison is sneaky — it slips in, steals your peace, and leaves you feeling like you don’t measure up. But gratitude? Gratitude is the guard dog that keeps joy safe.

In this episode, we’re talking about The Gift of Less — how letting go of comparison makes room for more: more peace, more joy, and more Jesus. You’ll hear:
• How comparison steals your blessings
• Why gratitude flips the script on a hard day
• What Paul’s “recipe” for contentment really is (Phil. 4:11–13)
• Why joy isn’t accidental — it’s a choice

Scriptures: Galatians 6:4–5, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Philippians 4:11–13, Psalm 16:11

Don’t miss the miracle, y’all. In this week’s episode of Unscripted Conversations, we’re talking about how God shows up in the everyday with provision, peace, and contentment.

I share one of my own miracle stories from when I was a single mama with thirty dollars to feed my boys, and how God provided in a way I’ll never forget. We’ll look at the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6, Jesus as the Bread of Life in John 6, the call to contentment in 1 Timothy 6, and the comfort of Psalm 23.

The big takeaway? The miracle isn’t always fire from heaven — most of the time, it’s in the small, steady hand of God providing exactly what we need day by day.

✨ Listen in, be encouraged, and don’t miss the miracle sitting right in front of you.

Are you a professional worrier like me?  If your brain can spin a “what if” story in 30 seconds flat, this episode is for you. In The Power of Praise – Turning Worry into Worship, I share how Philippians 4:6–7, Psalm 34:1, 2 Chronicles 20:22, Acts 16, and Isaiah 61:3 invite us to trade panic for peace.

We’ll talk about why praise shifts the atmosphere, how worship can crack open the blinds and let the light in, and why sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is sing in the middle of the storm. Along the way, I’ll share real stories from my own life — the late-night what-ifs, the craft room chaos, and even a few laughs about Sam’s love for living in the dark.

If worry has been stealing your peace, it’s time to flip the script. Worry doesn’t add a thing to your life — but worship adds everything. Come join me on the porch for a conversation that’ll leave you lighter, encouraged, and ready to praise God in the middle of whatever season you’re in.

Gratitude and humility — two simple words that can completely change the way we live. In this episode of Unscripted Conversations (S2E16), Ashley invites you to pull up a chair on the porch and lean into what it really looks like to live with a thankful heart.

We’ll talk about:
 ✨ Why gratitude is more than a quick “thank You, Lord” before supper — and how it reshapes the ordinary moments of life.
 ✨ How true humility isn’t weakness, but strength rooted in God’s grace.
 ✨ What happens when gratitude and humility walk hand in hand in our daily faith.
 ✨ Scriptures that remind us to keep our hearts soft, our spirits grounded, and our eyes fixed on Him.

If you’ve been running on empty or stuck in a season where joy feels hard to find, this conversation will give you encouragement, laughter, and a reminder that God’s goodness is still woven into every day — even the messy ones.
