In this episode, we talk to Jessica Gibson, mother to one, SAHM and wife to an essential worker.  From writing to building her own house, she is literally a jack of all trades.

Jessica is a constant picture of patience, one that rests in God’s plan and a loyal friend in all circumstances. But her heart of discipleship of others around her to know God in a more intimate way has inspired me in friendships with those in my sphere of influence. Jess' transparency and honesty in her struggles as a new mom, her desire to learn from others and heart of honesty is truly a picture of humility and sarcasm, all at the same time.  What a perfect combination!  I can’t wait for you to meet her!

Welcome to the Drive Thru Mom’s Podcast!

In this episode, I catch up with Mindy Nitcher, fellow @texastech alumni, dietician, world traveler  and niece extraordinaire!

Mindy has a heart for missional living which led her on global adventures, sharing Christ's love to people she meets.  Her love for the people of Thailand is evident.  From language school, navigating life abroad and delivering her first child in a foreign country during her first few years of marriage, to repatriating, Mindy's honest and transparent view of motherhood is real and refreshing, as well as hilarious! Mindy’s thoughts as she approached becoming a mom and the experiences afterward, might not be one that some women readily admit, but many would agree with.  I remember that time well! 

Mom-life is a joy-filled experience full of growth, but can also full of anxiety at times to care for our children to the best of our abilities, prayerful that we’re doing it right, while asking for God’s help along the way! Grab some coffee and enjoy!

Welcome to the Drive Thru Mom’s Podcast!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and in this episode, I talk with breast cancer survivor Jennifer Morrison as she shares her journey before diagnosis, during treatment, and how God showed up every day. Jennifer reflects on how her perspective shifted, how she began spending her time more intentionally, and how God provided for her family and friends through fear, worry, and uncertainty.

“You are one thing one day and one thing another, and it changes your life forever.”

Jennifer’s story is a powerful reminder for SAHMs, work-from-home moms, and moms who worry that even in life’s hardest seasons, we can overcome fear, experience God’s love, find peace, and feel a sense of belonging. She shares the tangible ways God’s hand was on her life, showing that no matter where you are in your story, His faithfulness and care remain constant.

Tune in to hear an inspiring journey of resilience, hope, connection, and encouragement, and discover how God can work in your life too.
