In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Chelsey Hallblade, a former ER nurse turned nutritionist, entrepreneur, and mom of two. Chelsey shares her journey from hospital burnout to building a thriving online fitness and nutrition business that now serves hundreds of clients.

We talk about why prioritizing your health is foundational, how busy moms can realistically lose weight without extremes, and what it really looks like to build a successful brand while raising kids. This conversation is honest, encouraging, and full of perspective for any mom who wants more energy, clarity, and confidence in her life.

In today’s episode of Start Scared, I reflect on a sermon from church over Philippians 1:1-11 and what it means to cultivate joyful fellowship with God and each other in 2026.

From grace and peace to prayer and community, this episode invites you to reflect on how connected your faith is and how we are never meant to shine alone.

In 2026, instead of picking a word for the year, I am choosing how I want to be, feel, and act. In this episode, I share my personal declaration and mantra for the year, along with the scriptures that are helping me release urgency, pressure, and control.

✨ Call to Action:
Create your own declaration, Scripture of the year, or mantra and share it with me. I’d love to hear what God is stirring in you as you step into 2026.

This weekend reminded me why parenting, boundaries, and friendship all matter. From a near missed fishing trip lesson to a husband and kid free girls’ weekend, this episode is about responsibility, consequences, happiness, and giving yourself permission to live, too. You can be a present mom and a present friend. Both matter. Merry Christmas, Mama! 🤍

In this short Christmas season episode, I share the legend behind the candy cane and how it points us back to Jesus. We talk about the difference between temporary holiday happiness and the true joy found only in Christ. With Paul’s letter to the Philippians as our guide, we’re reminded to stay rooted in joy, contentment, and the real gift of Christmas.

In today’s episode, I’m walking you through our full five-day Scottsdale and Grand Canyon trip... what we did, what we loved, the things that surprised us, and why this trip ended up being exactly what our family needed.

We are typically beach vacation people, but this one slowed us down and reminded me that sometimes the best memories are made when you choose the unfamiliar.

This weekend in Stephenville turned into a whole word straight from Acts 20:24. Addison’s church shared a powerful message on being “the other” in a world of sameness, especially with Thanksgiving and tricky family dynamics coming up. We’re talking hope, joy, forgiveness, running your race, staying in your lane, and showing up with grace in places that feel hard.
