Motherhood is beautiful, meaningful, and sometimes incredibly hard all at the same time.

Today, I’m sitting down with Lynn Wilson, the mom of Christian and country singer Anne Wilson. Behind Anne’s music and success is a family story marked by deep loss, strong faith, and a purpose that continues to carry them forward. Anne’s story is pretty remarkable… no one in the family had ever heard Anne sing until she bravely offered to sing at her brother’s funeral service.

Lynn shares about the heartbreak of losing her 23-year-old son Jacob, and how God began writing a story their family never could’ve imagined. We talk about motherhood, grief, faith, raising kids with purpose, and what it looks like to keep showing up even when life feels heavy.

Whether you’ve followed Anne’s music for years or you’re walking through your own tough season as a mom, I think Lynn’s story will really encourage you. I’m so glad your with us…

Today on Got It From My Momma, I’m joined by Steven Curtis Chapman and his wife, Mary Beth... two people whose lives and story have deeply impacted my own family in ways that are hard to fully put into words.

If you’re a mom, you know that life brings both incredible joy and unexpected heartbreak. And in some of the hardest seasons our family has walked through, their music, their faith, and their story were a steady source of comfort and hope for us.

Steven and Mary Beth have been married for 41 years, and their journey has held both beautiful highs and unimaginable lows. Through it all, they’ve continued to choose each other, and to trust God in the middle of it.

Their new book, Still Here… The Long Journey Home, is a heartfelt reflection on marriage, perseverance, grief, healing, and hope.

And yes, this is a first for us here on the podcast… Steven is officially our very first male guest (other than my son). But don’t worry, the topic earned him a seat on the couch, because we’re talking about something that matters to all of us: a marriage that lasts.

If you’re in a season of joy, struggle, or simply longing for encouragement in your marriage or motherhood journey, this conversation is for you.

In this episode of Got it From My Momma, I sit down with Emily Cole—wife, mom of three, and co-founder of the wildly successful Savannah Bananas alongside her husband, Jesse Cole (yes, the one in the iconic yellow tux!).

But behind the viral sensation and sold-out crowds is a story most people don’t see.

Emily shares what it looked like to walk through uncertainty, financial risk, and seasons where nothing was guaranteed… all while holding onto a dream that felt bigger than logic. We talk about the power of believing in something before you see it, supporting your spouse through big leaps, and raising a family grounded in purpose along the way.

We also dive into their heart for foster care and adoption through their organization, Bananas Foster, and how they’re using their platform to make a real difference.

This conversation is for anyone who’s ever wondered:
 What if we actually went for it?

✨ In this episode, we talk about:

• Taking risks when the outcome is unknown
• The real story behind the Savannah Bananas
• Motherhood in the middle of it all
• Foster care, adoption, and living with purpose

Today’s episode is a tender and meaningful one. I’m honored to sit down with Ellie Peak Collins, the daughter of Cindy Peak, who was tragically killed in the Covenant School shooting here in Nashville.
This is Ellie’s first interview, and I’m incredibly grateful for her willingness to share her heart. Our conversation is honest and raw as she talks about walking through unimaginable grief, the way her community surrounded her and her family in their darkest days, and the deep hope that continues to carry her forward.
What struck me most about Ellie is the posture of her heart. She speaks about the hope of heaven, the faith her mother lived so beautifully, and the choice she’s made not to live in bitterness, even sharing the sorrow she feels for the shooter’s family.
It’s a conversation about loss, faith, and the kind of hope that only God can provide.
I’m so honored to share this conversation with you.

Today’s conversation is one I won’t soon forget.

I’m sitting down with Autumn Nelon Streetman, the youngest member of the beloved Nelon Family gospel group - a family whose harmonies have carried the hope of the Gospel to generations. But this episode isn’t about the music, its about healing after unimaginable loss… and an unshakable faith.

Autumn was six months pregnant when a plane carrying her family to a performance crashed, taking the lives of the people she loved most, including her mother, step-father, older sister and brother in law.

In our conversation, Autumn shares never-before-heard details about that day… what it was like to return to the crash site… and the sentimental items that were recovered from the wreckage. 

She speaks candidly about carrying both joy and sorrow, about what it looks like to step out in faith when the future feels uncertain… and her calling to continue the music... And if you’ve ever wondered how faith survives tragedy… this is a conversation you need to hear.

She reflects on the challenges of raising a son through uncertainty, the importance of open communication, hard work, and believing in your child’s God-given potential, even when the road is difficult.

Debra Newell’s life became the focus of the wildly popular true crime podcast and movie Dirty John- but behind the headlines is a mother, a survivor, and a woman of deep faith.

In this episode of Got It From My Momma, Debra shares her harrowing real-life experience of falling in love with a man she met on a dating app...someone who appeared to have everything: wealth, prestige, charm, and a career in medicine. What she didn’t know was that he was a con man who would manipulate her, try to drain her financially, isolate her from her children, and ultimately bring her family into a tragic and unimaginable situation.

Debra opens up about:

• How manipulation can happen slowly—and to anyone
• The impact Dirty John had on her relationship with her children
• The weight of her daughter’s involvement in his death
• Rebuilding Trust
• And how her faith in God has sustained her through loss, shame, and healing

This is more than a true crime story. It’s a raw conversation about love, deception, motherhood, forgiveness, and finding God’s grace after trauma.
