What if the best parts of your life are already right in front of you… But you’re too distracted to see them?

In this deeply moving and honest episode, Bethany and Adam sit down with Kate Merrick, author, speaker, surfer, mom, and co-owner of Channel Islands Surfboards, for a conversation about slowing down, living intentionally, and refusing to miss the moments that matter. Kate opens up about the painful loss of her daughter, Daisy, to cancer, the sacred season their family spent unplugged in Israel, and how God taught her to "look up" and embrace the beauty in front of her.

From Sabbath rhythms to flipping the script on social media, this is a timely conversation about presence, motherhood, grief, and fighting back against the noise of our culture.
