Ever been frustrated at church?

With your spouse?

With a friend?

Ever felt unseen… forgotten… overlooked?

What if the disappointment isn’t actually about them?

In this episode, we’re talking about:

• The expectations we never say out loud

• The pressure to “find the perfect church” (especially as a military family)

• Silent resentment in marriage

• Unrealistic expectations in friendships

• And why people were never meant to carry God-sized roles in our lives

We put people on pedestals.

We assume they’ll just know.

We expect them to fill gaps we never communicate.

And then we’re crushed when they don’t.

This conversation is honest. Vulnerable. A little funny. A little convicting.

The takeaway?

Communicate.

Listen.

And stop expecting humans to be God.

If you’ve ever thought,

“Why am I so disappointed?”

This one’s for you.

BONUS EPISODE ALERT 🚨✨

You didn’t think we were showing up twice this week… but here we are.

Episode 14: “low-stakes holy hot takes” is LIVE — and it’s lighthearted, honest, and maybe just a tiny bit controversial (in the most harmless way possible). 😅

We’re talking about:

☕️ Venti iced lattes in the sanctuary — yes or no?

🪑 “Your” seat at church… is it really yours?

📖 Physical Bible vs. Bible app (and the judgment we don’t mean to have).

📺 Is livestream church still church?

🎶 How many times is too many times to sing the bridge?

But underneath all the fun takes is something deeper:

So many of the things we get hung up on?

They’re preferences… not doctrine.

And sometimes the small stuff keeps us from the right posture altogether.

This episode is a reminder that:

• Worship isn’t about performance.

• Community matters.

• The “best” Bible translation is the one you’ll actually read.

• And grace makes room for differences.

It’s not about being right.

It’s about being rooted.

If you’ve ever had a strong opinion about coffee, seating charts, hymnals, or worship bridges… this one’s for you. 🤍

🎧 Listen now.

📲 Share with your church friend who has a “spot.”

Remember:

Keep going.

Keep breathing.

And don’t forget to tell yourself… honey, that’s grace.

Tell me you have a complicated relationship with your reflection without telling me... 🪞🫠

We’ve all been there. You’re sitting in the Target parking lot, hair in a "postpartum hair loss" bun, having a mini-meltdown because you feel like a "failure" at basically everything. You feel like you have to show up as "Happy Katie" for the world, but inside, the imposter syndrome is shouting that you aren't measuring up.

We’re diving deep into the Gospel of Grace, reminding ourselves that God isn't looking for a "perfect" servant... He’s already singing over the messy one you are right now.

Tell me you have a love-hate relationship with your phone without telling me... 📱🫠

We’ve all been there. You’re exhausted after a long day of "sandwich generation" life, you sit down to rest, and your thumb automatically starts scrolling. An hour later? You’re more stressed, more dysregulated, and somehow looking at a bird-feeder livestream. 🐦

In today’s episode, we’re getting real about:

The Battery Anxiety: Why does 12% feel like a life-or-earth emergency?

The Doom Scroll: Why do we look at things that make us sad when we’re already tired?

Ever feel like one more "slurp" of spaghetti might actually send you over the edge? 🫠

In this episode, we’re getting honest about that "Mercury Rising" feeling… that moment where overstimulation takes over and suddenly the kitchen counters feel like a personal attack.

We are diving deep into why "doing nothing" is a high-level skill and how we can stop living our lives on "fire on all cylinders."

What’s inside:

🧠 The Window of Tolerance: Why your body is sending you "check engine" lights (headaches, brain fog, and itchy skin).

🛡️ Guarding Your Heart: Reclaiming this verse as a survival strategy for your nervous system.

📦 The "Box Victory": Why leaving the house messy is actually a massive spiritual win.

🛡️ Woman of Valor: Flipping the script on the Proverbs 31 "guilt trip."

It’s time to stop running a marathon every single day. You aren’t "invincible"—you’re human. And Honey, That’s Grace. 🤍

tried to “protect your peace” but didn’t know how without snapping

Forgiveness is one of the hardest things Jesus asks us to practice — and one of the most freeing. Episode 7 dives into what forgiveness really looks like: ...not excusing the hurt ...not ignoring boundaries ...not rushing reconciliation but choosing peace over pain and releasing what you were never meant to carry. If forgiveness feels impossible right now, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to do it in your own strength. Grace meets you right there. #honeythatsgrace #faithandfeelings #graceinthemess #jesusmeetsushere

Comparison is a thief. It steals joy. Peace. Confidence. Sleep. (And somehow convinces you everyone else has it together). This episode gets REAL about social media spirals, mom guilt, and why grace says: ✨ You’re enough right now. If scrolling has been messing with your heart... this one’s for you. #honeythatsgrace #faithandfeelings #graceinthemess #jesusmeetsushere
