This week’s episode is a little different — and a whole lot sweeter. We stitched together a “mix-tape” of sisterhood: snippets of each of us sharing what we’ve learned, loved, and held onto since starting this podcast… and what we’re most thankful for this Thanksgiving season.

It’s raw, real, and full of the kind of honesty that reminds you just how powerful community can be. From stories about how this podcast has stretched us, to the vulnerable moments we didn’t expect to share, to the gratitude that’s carried us through messy seasons — this episode is a celebration of what happens when women show up for each other.

You’ll hear about:

The power of sisterhood and why we need each other more than ever

How being real and relatable builds deeper connection

What we’ve learned through our own imperfections, mistakes, and messy moments

The beauty of learning from—not comparing with—the women around us

Why we’re so grateful for the incredible listeners who show up week after week

This episode is a warm hug, a kitchen-table chat, and a Thanksgiving blessing all rolled into one. We hope it reminds you of the goodness in your own life, the sisters who support you, and the sacred beauty of being human together.

Thank you for letting us grow with you. Thank you for sharing your stories. And thank you for being part of our Southern Sisterhood — we’re so grateful for you.

The holiday season can be magical... and a little bit manic. In this week’s episode, we’re unwrapping what it really means to keep holidays meaningful — without losing our minds (or our joy) in the process.

We’re swapping stories about the holiday traditions that worked, the ones that definitely didn’t (yes, there were tears involved), and how sometimes the biggest “fails” turn into the memories we laugh about for years.

From failed gift giving to heartwarming moments of togetherness, we’re talking about finding the merry in the mess — and remembering that connection will always matter more than perfection.

Sometimes the holiest thing you can do in December is slow down. Light the candle. Burn the cookies. Sit in the messy living room and let yourself remember: the miracle isn’t in the schedule — it’s in the stillness.

In this week’s episode, we’re diving deep into what it really means to love through sacrifice — the little ones that make us laugh (like sharing our drinks we didn’t want to share) and the big ones that shape our faith, our families, and our future.

Special thanks to our sponsor for this episode AAA Life Solutions. We are so grateful for all of your support! They can help you build peaceful solutions for your future in these uncertain times. You can reach them at 901-508-2433. 

In this episode we talk about the power that can come from sacrifice, and while everything can feel uncertain, somehow we grew our confidence, deepened our relationships, and built something we’d never trade.

From letting go of comfort to discovering purpose, this episode is all about how God uses sacrifice to stretch us, grow us, and remind us what love really costs — and why it’s always worth it.

Scripture & Quotes

“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

“You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.”

“Maybe it had to happen because God knew I wouldn’t move unless I was forced to…”

This episode is a reminder that real love will cost you something — time, pride, comfort, control — but the return is always greater. Through laughter, honest conversation, and faith-filled reflection, we’re uncovering how sacrifice shapes who we are, strengthens our families, and grows our faith.

This week on Southern Sisters, we’re leaning into a truth that hits especially close to home this time of year: gratitude changes everything.

As the holidays approach and the world shouts “more,” we’re slowing down to talk about what it really means to live with abundance — not the kind that comes from a paycheck or possessions, but the kind that grows from a thankful heart.

We kick off the thankful season as the sisters dive deep into how gratitude and stewardship go hand in hand. They share personal stories about shifting from scarcity thinking to abundant living, what it means to make intentional financial choices, and how to see God’s hand of provision even in seasons of uncertainty.

They remind us that being careful with what we have doesn’t mean living in lack — it means honoring the Giver. Gratitude isn’t just an emotion; it’s a mindset that changes how we see, give, and live. When we focus on what’s already in our hands, we begin to experience joy, peace, and contentment right where we are.

This episode is an invitation to pause and notice the blessings hiding in plain sight — the laughter around your table, the roof over your head, the people who show up, and the God who never stops providing. Because when we live from gratitude, we stop chasing “more” and start living like we already have enough.

In this week’s solo episode, Meggan Boston opens her heart to talk about the real journey of growth — the kind that isn’t about overnight transformation or giant leaps forward, but about showing up and celebrating the small steps along the way.

We'd like to give a special shout out to AAA Service Company! Anytime you have an emergency they are here to help! Give them a call at 901-753-4432. Or visit them online at memphiscleanup.com

As she prepares to release her new book, G.R.I.T. and Grace, Meggan shares how this framework — Growth, Resilience, Intention, and Togetherness — was born out of her own messy middle. She reminds listeners that perseverance doesn’t always look loud or glamorous. Sometimes, it’s quiet. Sometimes, it’s just doing the next right thing — and trusting that small victories will eventually add up to big change.

This episode is your reminder to pause, breathe, and notice the progress you’ve already made — because every small win counts.

Episode Highlights

Why it’s so important to celebrate the little moments that often go unnoticed

How the G.R.I.T. Method helps you grow with faith and purpose

What to do when you feel stuck or unseen in your journey

How perseverance builds spiritual and emotional muscle

Why gratitude and recognition are key to long-term motivation

The power of “spotting the B's” — noticing beauty, effort, and blessings all around you

“It’s all about celebrating the small steps, not just the big leaps.”

“In moments of struggle, celebrate the small wins.”

“Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.” — Vincent van Gogh

Reflection Question: Where can you pause and celebrate a small win in your life today?

Preorder's Meggan’s New Book: G.R.I.T. and Grace begin next week! Keep and eye out! Dive deeper into the method behind this message — the one that helps women build strength through Growth, Resilience, Intention, and Togetherness.

Ladies… can we get an amen for hormones? From the first teenage tears to the midlife mood swings, hormones have a way of keeping us humble. In this week’s episode of Southern Sisters, we’re talking about it all — puberty, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and everything in between.

We’re keeping it real with personal stories (some hilarious, some tender) and honest talk about how hormones affect every stage of a woman’s life — not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually, too. 

This isn’t your average “biology class” conversation. We’re diving into the faith, humor, and community that help us survive the swings — because let’s be honest, sometimes surviving is thriving.

How hormones shape every stage of life — from puberty to menopause

The power of open, honest communication (with your spouse, friends, and kids!)

The importance of educating both sons and daughters about hormonal health

Real talk about pregnancy and postpartum emotional waves

What happens when hormones shake up your identity and self-worth

Why faith and community are key to staying grounded in the chaos

Practical, grace-filled ways to manage hormonal swings with humor and hope

“Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.” — Proverbs 31:25 (KJV)

Because every season of womanhood — from the first cramps to the hot flashes — comes with both challenges and divine purpose. When we show up for each other, talk about the hard stuff, and lean into faith, we remember:

You’re not crazy. You’re just a woman. Wonderfully made, hormones and all.

Where do I need more grace with myself (or someone I love) in this season of hormonal change?

This week on Southern Sisters, we’re celebrating the divine design of womanhood — what it means to be daughters of God, created with purpose, power, and divine intention.

Special thanks to our sponsor and snack break provider Dough Worth It! Sharolyn bakes with love and it shows! 

We start with a laugh (as always) and a playful icebreaker: If women really did run the world, what would be the first rule you’d make? The answers might surprise you — and remind us that even rules have to make room for agency. 

In our “Hand of God” segment, we share where we’ve been seeing Him move lately — especially in the way He’s increasing our capacity as women to do all that He asks of us with strength and grace.

Then we dive into a heartfelt conversation about the divine role of women, looking back to Mother Eve and the sacred purpose found in creation, nurturing, and spiritual strength. Through stories, scripture, and laughter, we remind each other that womanhood is not accidental — it’s intentional.

What it really means to be a daughter of God and how that truth changes everything.

How recognizing our divine role reframes our daily responsibilities — from motherhood to ministry to marriage.

The difference between being an equal partner and being the same.

Lies the world tells about womanhood — and how to replace them with God’s truth.

How to see God’s hand in expanding your capacity, even when life feels heavy.

“Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.” — Proverbs 31:25 (KJV)

“You can—you must—make a difference. You are vital to the Lord’s team… Bind yourselves together in all holiness.” — President Russell M. Nelson

Talk Referenced in the Podcast: Lessons from Eve (Oct 1987)

How can I more fully live out my divine identity this week — in my home, my work, and my relationships?

Because being a woman of God isn’t about perfection — it’s about purpose, partnership, and the quiet strength that comes from divine design.

In this thought-provoking episode of Southern Sisters, we’re tackling a big one: truth. In a world full of opinions, headlines, and “facts” that seem to change every five minutes, how do we stay grounded in what’s real?

We start with a laugh (because of course we do) — sharing the funny “truths” we confidently told our kids that may not have been so… true. (Let’s just say the Holy Ghost apparently has an early bedtime, and watermelon seeds are more powerful than we thought. 🍉)

But then we go deeper. From current events shaking faith communities around the world to personal stories of learning to discern God’s voice amid the noise, this episode reminds us that truth isn’t just information — it’s revelation.

Why it’s getting harder to tell fact from opinion — and what to do about it.

How the adversary uses deception to divide people of faith.

The difference between hearing noise and recognizing the Savior’s voice.

Why being “of the truth” means actively seeking it — not just scrolling for it.

Practical ways to help our kids become truth-seekers, not trend-followers.

What Cortney learned about trusting God’s truth over self-doubt.

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God…” — James 1:5 (KJV)

Where do I need to seek God’s truth more than the world’s opinion this week?

Because at the end of the day, truth isn’t trending — it’s eternal. And when the world feels loud, confusing, or divided, that’s our cue to lean in, listen, and let the Spirit cut through the noise.

What does the world need most right now? A little more love—and a whole lot less comparison and contention.

In this heartfelt solo episode, Meggan opens up about her own journey of learning to love deeply: love for community, love in the middle of life’s messy moments, and yes—even love for herself. From her most embarrassing moment to the power of choosing kindness when life gets tough, this conversation is equal parts heart and humor.

Meggan reminds us that love doesn’t always look like grand gestures—it often shows up in the little things: choosing peace over contention, celebrating small wins, or remembering your divine worth. And here’s the truth: love may not change the whole world today, but it can change someone’s world—and that matters.

Brought to you by our friends at AAA Life Solutions, because planning for tomorrow is one of the most loving things you can do for your family today.

Love is always the answer.

Bring love into every situation.

Love starts at home.

Be a peacemaker, not a peacekeeper.

Stop comparing yourself to others.

Celebrate small wins.

Remember your divine worth.

Love may not change the world in a day, but it can change someone’s world today.

So grab your fav drink, press play, and let’s talk about the one thing we can never have too much of—love.

If you could go back ten years, what would you say to your younger mom self? In this week’s episode of Southern Sisters, we sit down and write a love letter to the women we used to be—the tired, sometimes worried, but always trying moms who didn’t realize just how much they were already doing right.

We kick things off lightheartedly by asking the question: which one of us would make the worst reality TV star? The answers might surprise you…or maybe not. Either way, it sets the stage for laughter and honesty as we dive into a conversation that feels like sitting around the table with your closest friends.

From there, we share a few of our favorite things—the little joys that are making life easier or bringing smiles to our days right now. It’s a reminder that sometimes, in the chaos of motherhood, the smallest comforts can be the biggest gifts.

The heart of the episode is all about looking back. We talk about the worries we carried in early motherhood that turned out not to matter so much (yes, the vegetables conversation comes up), and the things we’re deeply grateful we did when our kids were little—like filling our homes and cars with music and memories. We lean into the whispers of encouragement we’d love to send back in time: keep going, this really will be the greatest work of your life. It will take all you’ve got, but it’s worth it.

Faith is woven through it all. We share how our faith has grown in leaps and bounds since those early years—not through big, grand moments, but through the small daily habits that built a strong foundation. The scripture guiding us this week is Galatians 6:9, a reminder not to grow weary in well doing, because in due season we will see the harvest.

As you listen, we hope you’ll take a moment to think about the encouragement you’d offer a mom a season behind you. What words would you pass along? What would you tell your younger self if you had the chance?

This episode is full of laughter, honesty, and hope—a love letter not just to our younger selves, but to every mom walking the road of raising kids with faith, love, and resilience.
