Did you miss Life in Bloom? Join Faith + Leah for a long-awaited first episode BACK to the podcast! We talk about where we've been, why we have had such a long hiatus, what God has been doing in our lives, a word-of-the-year encouragement, and what you can expect from Life in Bloom in this exciting relaunch!

We are so glad you've stuck around, and we are so glad to be back sharing stories + helping women live fully awake, in whatever season they find themselves in!

Let's BLOOM.

As women, we often brave conversations about struggles with mental health. We find a sense of unity in knowing we aren't alone. We champion the idea of vulnerabiity!

But what about when our men--our husbands--are struggling, too? Why does it seem so taboo for vulnerability and men to be in the same sentence?!

So today, join Faith + Leah, and a special guest host, Muta Mwenya (husband|father|pastor|leader), as we have an honest conversation about vulnerability, mental health, and how we--as wives--can come alongside our husbands for healing and wholeness, and walking in the full capacity God has for them.

If you want to follow along with Muta: his life and his ministry, you can find him here:

Have you ever found yourself feeling like, "it wasn't supposed to be this way"? Your life isn't what you were expecting, or a situation didn't go as planned? Join Faith + Leah as they discuss how to learn to accept God's plan for your life, and embrace the season you are in. 

When you find yourself standing in the middle of what was, and what will be--that season in the valley... how do you deal?! Today we are going to talk about living from "the middle". How we can trust that God is shaping us--even in the valley. That we don't have to just wait around for the end, but we can start living, truly living, from the middle. We are going to unpack how the gospel changes our hearts: from mountains to valleys.

Join Faith + Leah as they look forward to the coming year. They discuss resolutions and goals, and how sometimes, they can actually put you one step back. Is your journal from 2021 sitting empty? Is your gym membership sitting unused? We sometimes feel the need to set such high goals for ourselves and then are surprised when we fall short. This episode encourages listeners to look at the new year with a new perspective and discusses how we can support our friends as they work to achieve their goals. 

Have you ever felt that you are just missing the mark? That you are chasing something that is just barely out of reach? And that if you hustle more, try harder, take every opportunity that comes your way, that then—maybe just maybe you’ll get to the place you want to be.

Do you find yourself measuring your worth in the sum total of your achievements and accomplishments, or your failures and shortcomings?

Join Faith and Leah as we talk about why we have so easily become preoccupied with striving for perfection in motherhood, when all we really need is grace, how we can take the pressure off ourselves and trust God, and how we can rest in God’s approval over everything else.

Join Faith + Leah as they tackle the raw subject of body image. We as women often struggle with accepting our bodies for what they are, and often have a distorted view of "beauty". In this episode we talk about how we can shape our mindset to reflect our beauty in the eyes of our creator, how we can support and mold our children, and how we can support other women. 

We know the holidays are right around the corner, and with it, there is an added pressure of curating a peaceful, magical, memory-making time with your family. Join Faith and Leah as they talk about how we can be rooted when expectations fall short, where the pressure + expectations we often feel comes from, and how we can have a good (not perfect) holiday season--no matter what!
