Sometimes the hardest part isn't being able—it's being willing. I'm sharing a quote that's been stuck in my head about how God can make the willing able, but can't make the able willing, and why that might be the most important thing to understand when life feels impossible. Whether you're unable to get out of bed, choose faith, or find hope—what if willingness is literally all we need to bring to the table?

If you ever feel depressed, numb, or apathetic this one is for you! 

I value nutrition but eat a donut every day, I choose religion despite major conflicts with some beliefs, and honestly I'm tired of trying to make everything in my life perfectly line up.

There’s a difference between removing shame and calling something normal—and we don’t talk about that enough. Today I’m sharing a few thoughts on religious trauma, panic attacks, and why acceptance should be a path to healing, not a permission slip for suffering. No shame here, just soul-deep honesty. God loves you—and I really hope you believe that by the end of this episode.

Guilt gets a bad rap—and sometimes for good reason. But what if it’s not meant to shame you, just redirect you? Today we’re giving guilt a little PR makeover. From raw dogging meetings (yes, really) to grief guilt and mom guilt, we’re asking: what if guilt’s just a low tire pressure light for the soul? Let’s talk about it.

I'm so tired of having to rally every time life throws me a curveball - like can't I just coast for a minute?  But here's what I've learned: letting go of the life you thought you should have actually opens up space to enjoy the life you get to have (plot twist pending on that extreme wealth lesson though

Yes choosing to believe is possible, but it gets tiring. Let's talk about it! What if going all in (even when it's scary) might be the cold plunge your soul needs to stop feeling so exhausted by faith?

How do you raise kids with faith when you're not even sure what you believe yourself? Even if you've deconstructed your faith, maybe there are some core pieces (like knowing you're loved, that service matters, that you belong somewhere) that are still worth passing on as a starting point.
