February 21, 2022 26. Bible Verses for Battling Fear
What is the most surefire way to battle fear and overcome adversity? How can we make even the darkest valley a place of springs? How can we go from strength to strength? How can we remain hopeful in the Lord even when we are fighting the attacks the enemy?

There are two passages in the Bible that my mom repeated over and over that specifically tackle these questions. She truly lived by these verses and, the more she shared the meaning and importance of them with me, the more I realized I (and all of us!) should too. Get your Bibles open to 2 Chronicles 20 and Psalm 84, and be ready to walk away from this episode fired up to fight against fear, anxiety, adversity, darkness, and all of the attacks that the enemy tries to throw your way.

February 07, 2022 25. Are God’s Promises Always True?
Do you believe in God's promises? Do you want to know what His promises are for you? Has He given you a personal promise that you have yet to see fulfilled? Has the opposite of what He promised you happened? How should you wait for God's promises to be fulfilled?

In this episode, I talk about all of this and more. I have simultaneously experienced a promise given to my mom look drastically different from what we expected, and a promise given to me that has yet to be fulfilled. Nonetheless, I believe that God's promises are true and I share the journey I have walked through and the lessons I've learned in the last eight years regarding God's promises in this episode.

January 17, 2022 24. Is it God’s Will to Heal?
To be totally honest, this episode is one that I’ve been simultaneously terrified and thrilled to record. Over the last seven months since my mom passed away, God has taught me more than I could ever imagine He would about His will, the reality of heaven, the enemy’s evil plans, His healing power, and His provision.

How do we know if it's God's will to heal? What are Bible verses that support or deny that? Why do people who have faith in God die before their time? Is it true that some don't receive healing? What does God's protection for us against evil look like?

In this episode, I share what the Lord has shown me on all of this and more.

January 03, 2022 23. Dealing with People and Feelings in Grief
Grief isn’t meant to be walked alone. However, processing through grief and handling all of the relational dynamics that comes with that can be just as challenging as the grief itself. Don’t get me wrong, people are wonderful and community is crucial and neither should be shut out as you grieve. So how do you interact with and give grace to your people, and yourself, as you all walk through total unknowns?
In this episode, I talk about why it’s easy to “keep score” on people (and whether or not you should), how to battle against victimhood and feeling sorry for yourself, and if you should cater to how others feel about your loss or if you should let them feel uncomfortable.

December 20, 2021 22. How to Make Grief a Little Bit Easier
Is it possible to make grieving easier?
What can someone do, especially on the worst days, to alleviate some of that crushing pain and intensity?
How can a griever take some of the overwhelming busyness off of their shoulders?
In this episode, I go through three of the things I found made my grief journey even just the tiniest bit more manageable. I won’t promise that it’ll take away the grief or help you get over it, but I will say that it’ll make each day a little less hard through the millions of things you’re responsible for and processing through.

November 29, 2021 21. Five Tips for Someone Who is Grieiving
Today I’m giving five of my best tips for someone who is grieving.
I thought I knew what grief was like before I lost my mom, and yet I had absolutely no clue until it knocked my whole world upside down. In this episode, I share five of the most important and helpful things I have learned about grief in the last five months since my mom passed away.
I cover everything from breathing (yes, breathing) and time management, to comparing your grief with others and how I feel about the expected timeline of grief (spoiler alert, I hate it and you’ll hear all the reasons why).
Whether or not you have lost a loved one, and whether or not you’ve experienced deep grief, this episode is for you. The unfortunate reality is we all either have experienced profound loss or one day we will experience profound loss. If you haven’t yet, my hope is, when you one day (far in the future) lose someone and begin your grief journey, that you will be able to remember the words of this episode and that they will help you through.

November 15, 2021 20. Supporting Your Friend in Grief: Part 2
How can I take care of my grieving friend in the day-to-day things?
What do I do if my grieving friend doesn’t want to talk or get together?
What’s the best way to continue to remember their loved one long term?
When does the griever stop needing support?
What questions imply to the griever "well don't be sad"?
Why is “let me know if you need anything” an unhelpful question?
In this episode, my friend Miriam and I continue our conversation about how you can best support a friend through grief. We cover all of these questions (and much more!) and have an incredibly beautiful conversation about grief and friendship. It was such a good conversation, that it was too long for just one episode! This is part two of our conversation (I recommend listening to part one first) and I believe that everyone will take something away from this episode.
Even if you don’t currently have a friend who has walked through grief, unfortunately one day you will, and I hope that you will be able to think back on this conversation to help guide you in loving and supporting them.

Have you ever wondered how to support your friend who is grieving a loss? Is there a right thing vs. the wrong thing to say? How should you show your friend you’re there for them without overwhelming them? Is a card the right thing to send? Does talking about the person make things worse?
In this episode, my friend Miriam joins me to talk about how you can best support a friend through grief. We cover all of these questions (and more!) and have an incredibly beautiful conversation about grief and friendship. It was such a good conversation, that it was too long for just one episode!

October 18, 2021 18. Lessons from Linda: Part 2
What does it actually look like to make the most of your time?
How can you invest in other people in the best possible way?
What does the verse "teach us to number our days" really mean?
Is it a bad thing when people talk about themselves?
What is the best way to show others that you want to help them?
In this episode, I share incredible lessons that my mom taught me about two things we all always either have not enough of or too much of - time and people. My mom had incredible discernment when it came to understanding people and managing her time... those are two of her greatest gifts. If you're going to learn from anyone about time and people, I highly recommend it be Linda.
This is an episode full of incredible insight from Linda that you can directly apply to your own life in a meaningful way. I encourage you to take notes and be ready, because I can guarantee that you'll receive so much from the lessons she taught. Plus, I share my own spicy take about one of the lessons, and I'm curious to hear if you agree or not.

October 04, 2021 17. Lessons from Linda: Part 1
My mom is a teacher through and through. She was so intentional in making sure that every word she spoke and every thing she did taught us and equipped us. Nothing she did or said was without purpose. It's just how she lived and loved.

In today's episode, I share five life lessons I learned from her that we all need to hear. This is for sure a note-taking episode so prepare yourself to be encouraged, empowered, and inspired as we learn from Linda.
