#162 One of the most powerful choices you can make while you’re single is to invest in who you’re becoming. There are some things you can't change about yourself—but with God’s help, you can grow your character. And here’s the truth: you can fake character on a date, but you can’t fake it in marriage.

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, we’re bringing back a favorite episode all about cultivating gratitude—a habit that shapes your heart, your relationships, and your future marriage. The entire podcast crew (including Leah!) is here to share real-life stories, practical tips, and biblical insights on how to grow a genuinely thankful heart.

If you’ve been feeling spiritually stagnant, easily frustrated, or just craving a reset heading into the holidays, this episode will help you shift your mindset and your mood.

Listen in and start becoming the woman your future husband will thank God for.
