In Episode 29 of the Rooted + Rested podcast, we dive into Week 4 of our 7-week series on the Lord’s Prayer, focusing on forgiveness: “Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.”

Forgiveness is more than a concept — it’s a daily practice that clears the weight of guilt, resentment, and past mistakes so your heart can breathe freely. This week, Lisa reflects on how forgiveness works in everyday life, including motherhood, work, and personal growth, and how it opens space for God’s presence and provision.

Drawing inspiration from her lavender fields, Lisa compares pruning plants to clearing our hearts: removing what blocks growth allows light, rest, and peace to flourish. Listeners are invited to reflect on God’s forgiveness, release what no longer serves them, and extend grace to others — creating a freer, more peaceful prayer life.

Whether you’re a busy mom, an entrepreneur, or simply a woman seeking to grow spiritually, this episode offers practical reflection prompts, Scripture-based insight, and encouragement to pause, pray, and let go.

Welcome to Episode 28 of Rooted + Rested, and Week 3 of our 7-week series, A Season of Peace. In this episode, we focus on the line from the Lord’s Prayer:

“Give us this day our daily bread.”

Jesus is the Bread of Life (John 6:35), and this week we explore how He provides for our hearts, our needs, and our daily responsibilities — whether in business, family, or life’s daily decisions. Learn how to bring your questions, ideas, and decisions to Him one day at a time, rest in His presence, and trust that He will provide exactly what you need for today.

You’ll also receive gentle guidance for journaling, reflection prompts, and a simple prayer to help you align with His provision each day.

This episode is for women seeking rest, peace, and clarity in their everyday lives — whether you’re a business owner, a mom, or someone simply longing to experience God’s daily provision.

In Episode 27 of Rooted + Rested — and Week 2 of the 7-week “Rooted + Rested: A Season of Peace” series — Lisa shares the powerful question that transformed the way she prays, works, and listens for God:

“Lord… what am I doing that You never asked me to do?”

This episode gently guides you into the heart of surrender. Whether you’re a business owner, a mom navigating full days, or a woman longing to feel lighter and more rooted in God’s peace, this conversation will help you pause and ask the hard but freeing questions that lead to real clarity.

Through a story from her lavender field — and the surprising way bunnies nibble at old branches — Lisa shows how even small things can quietly drain our energy and peace. And sometimes, God asks us to put down things He once asked us to carry, simply because that season is over.

This week, we explore what it truly means to pray:

“Your kingdom come, Your will be done…”

And how aligning your heart with His will clears space for identity, purpose, and deep peace.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re hopping from idea to idea, burning energy but not building anything that truly lasts, this episode will speak right to your heart. I open with a story from my lavender field — and the bunnies who taught me more about my business than I expected. Their constant hopping, nibbling, and creating chaos became a picture of what I was doing in my own work: moving fast, doing “all the things,” but rarely slowing down enough to hear what God actually wanted.

This is the first episode in our 7-week Rooted + Rested series, where we walk through the Lord’s Prayer line by line to help busy Christian women, entrepreneurs, and overwhelmed moms end the year with peace instead of exhaustion.

This week, we begin with adoration — the words Jesus taught us to pray:

I share what it looks like to have “business meetings with the Lord,” why I start each one by worshiping Him, and how this simple shift changed the way I work, plan, and rest. When we begin with adoration, our striving quiets, our anxiety softens, and our hearts become aligned with His presence instead of our pressure.

Christmas Box:

May this episode help you slow down, breathe deeply, and kneel before the One who leads your life and your work with love.

In this inspiring episode of Rooted + Rested, Lisa reflects on the story of Daniel in the lions’ den and the powerful truth that faithfulness is built in the quiet.

You’ll discover how Daniel’s daily habit of prayer prepared him for the greatest test of his faith — and what it means for us to “pray without ceasing.” Through Scripture, reflection, and personal stories from her own “prayer rooms” — her lavender field, front porch, and cozy spaces — Lisa shares how consistent prayer aligns us with God’s will and brings peace in the midst of life’s chaos.

Featuring a nostalgic clip of “Dare to Be a Daniel” and a free printable reflection sheet, this episode encourages you to build your own rhythm of prayer and courage.

When doubt whispers louder than faith, it can leave us wondering if something’s wrong with us… or with our faith. But Romans 8:16 reminds us that “The Spirit Himself testifies together with our spirit that we are God’s children.”

In this peaceful episode of Rooted + Rested, Lisa explores what’s really happening in those moments of uncertainty — the gentle tension between our flesh (what we feel and see) and our spirit (what we know to be true in Christ).

Through Scripture, reflection, and a guided time of rest, Lisa helps you:

This episode includes a gentle reflection practice called “Breathing with the Spirit” — a quiet time to pause, breathe, and realign your heart with God’s truth.

Scriptures Mentioned:

Have you ever noticed that the very things God calls you to often highlight your biggest struggles? In this episode of Rooted + Rested, Lisa shares how God spoke to her about being a peace giver—and how that calling began by recognizing where she was chasing the world’s version of peace instead of receiving the peace that only Christ can give.

Through John 14:27 and Ephesians 6:15, Lisa invites you to reflect on what it means to wear the gospel of peace as armor—to stand firm and stay steady even when life feels anything but peaceful. You’ll learn how to receive, not manufacture, the peace of Christ and what it truly means to live from rest instead of striving.
