Middle school is a whole new world — and this year, my son is stepping into it by himself for the first time. In this episode, I’m sharing how it feels as a mom to watch him navigate this season, the worries that come with letting go, and the pride of seeing him grow more independent.

If you’ve ever had a child make that big transition — or if you’re just preparing for it — you’ll know it’s not always easy. But we’re in this together, and I truly believe God gives us the grace to parent through each new stage.

So come talk story with me about middle school, motherhood, and trusting God with our kids in a whole new way.

Welcome to a brand new season of the podcast — because honestly, something’s gotta change. In this episode, I’m opening up about where I’m at, why I’ve been rethinking how I do this show, and the new direction I feel God leading me in.

No pressure, no preaching — just me, talking story about faith, life, and the real stuff we go through. I’m excited (and a little nervous) to shift things up, but I know it’s time.

So let’s talk stories about change, growth, and what’s ahead for the Faith & Aloha Podcast.

Have you ever felt like you had to hold it all together — until suddenly you realized you couldn’t?

In this episode, I share a deeply personal story about a week when I thought I was “fine” managing everything alone… until I found myself overwhelmed and lonely. In that quiet, raw moment, God met me with one powerful word: sovereign.

We’ll talk about what God’s sovereignty really means — not as a distant, theological concept, but as a safe place for your tired, overwhelmed heart. Together, we’ll explore scripture, reflect on surrendering control, and learn how His sovereignty can become our deepest rest and hope.

Come sit with me, friend — let’s invite God’s sovereignty to be our safe place.

Have you ever felt stuck in a cycle? The same argument, the same tension, the same heavy feelings that show up over and over again?

In this episode of The Faith & Aloha Show, I’m opening up about a pattern in my marriage with Danny that’s repeated for years — especially before he left for work trips. Every time, there would be tension, fighting, and a heaviness that lasted the whole time he was gone.

But this time, something shifted. Through quiet inner healing (which we talked about last week) and the power of asking for prayer, I experienced a new kind of peace — for the first time in years.

We’ll look at Isaiah 26:3 and Philippians 4:7, and talk about how peace doesn’t always show up loud and dramatic. Sometimes, it arrives gently, through surrender, prayer, and small heart changes that break big cycles.

If you’re longing for peace in your relationships, or praying for a breakthrough in your marriage, this episode is for you.

Have you ever found yourself angry or deeply emotional over something small, and thought, “Where did that come from?”

In this episode of The Faith & Aloha Show, I’m opening up about my own recent experiences with unexpected anger and emotional reactions — and how God has been gently inviting me to look deeper.

Inspired by an email I received at just the right moment, I realized that these emotional “flare-ups” aren’t always failures… they’re signals. God doesn’t expose our raw places to shame us, but to heal us.

We’ll explore scriptures like Psalm 139:23–24 and Proverbs 4:23, and talk about how to start bringing those hidden hurts to God instead of burying them.

This is a gentle, real invitation to look within — and begin a deeper journey of healing with Him.

Take two! My apologies upload the wrong audio file lol I promise this is the correct one now. 

Have you ever felt like your prayers were too specific… like maybe you were asking for too much, or that God wouldn’t really care about the little details of your life? Same.

In this episode of The Faith & Aloha Show, I’m opening up about what it looks like to pray bold, specific prayers — even when it feels risky. We’ll look at scriptures like Philippians 4:6 and Mark 10:51–52, where Jesus Himself asks, “What do you want Me to do for you?”

I’ll also be sharing a personal story — the prayer I prayed over our home — and how that moment taught me to stop holding back and start trusting God with the desires of my heart.

If you’ve ever wrestled with vague prayers, disappointment, or fear of being too much — this episode is for you.

Scriptures Highlighted:

• Philippians 4:6 – “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything…”
• Mark 10:51–52 – “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked.

Key Themes:

• How fear makes us pray small
• Why Jesus wants us to be honest and clear in prayer
• Real-life story of praying for a home
• Encouragement to pray boldly and specifically this week

Challenge:

This week, write down one very specific prayer and bring it to God every day. Watch how He meets you in it — whether the outcome changes or you do.

In today’s episode, I’m just talking story. No big message — just me sharing what’s been on my mind lately. I talk about our recent beach day and how I prayed through some of my fears, especially when I feel like God is calling me into things that scare me.

I also share how I’ve grown when it comes to friendship — from being someone who didn’t really keep up with friends in high school, to now putting in effort to build and maintain real connections. Plus, I talk about the kind of friend I am, how most of my friendships start with a shared struggle, a few books I’m loving right now, and even random thoughts like how wild it is that flying to outer islands is so close but still feels like a big deal.

It’s a relaxed episode, just me being real and sharing life as it comes.

Let’s be real — comfort feels good.

But sometimes, the very thing that feels safe is the same thing keeping us stuck.

In this episode, I’m opening up about how comfort became my hiding place… and how God had to lovingly pull me out of it so I could grow.

Because growth? It’s not always loud or obvious — sometimes it shows up in the stretch, in the quiet tension of obedience, and in the moments we finally stop playing it safe.

We’re talking about:

• Why comfort can quietly kill purpose
• How to tell if you’re spiritually stuck or just afraid
• What it means to say yes to growth even when it’s uncomfortable
• Encouragement from James 1:4 — “Let it grow…”

This is your gentle push to move with God, even if it means stepping into the unknown.

Have you ever been told you’re too much? Too loud, too bossy, too assertive?

Growing up, I was often labeled that way — and for a long time, I believed it. I learned to shrink parts of myself just to keep the peace.

But recently, something shifted. A moment with my principal — a comment I would’ve once taken as criticism — made me pause… and smile. Because maybe the traits people tried to silence were actually God-given tools for leadership.

In this episode, I’m unpacking how we can stop apologizing for our wiring and start surrendering it to God instead. What was once seen as a flaw might just be the fire behind your calling.

🎧 Tune in to hear:

• A story about reframing “irritating” and “bossy” into purpose
• How God redeems misunderstood traits
• Why you don’t need to tone yourself down — just tune yourself to His voice
