In honor of Thanksgiving, I wanted to share one of my favorite Thanksgiving memories and the heartwarming story that goes along with it. Thank you for joining me as I reminisce about the best neighbor who ever was: Farmer John.

Nicki is passionate about homeschool and history, and it's evident once you hear her speak about either, how they are sources of joy in her life! I first met Nicki at the North Dakota homeschool convention a few years ago, and had no idea about her story until we recorded this episode. My facial expressions speak for themselves, but this is an episode you're going to find fascinating, I have no doubt! Be encouraged and inspired by all Nicki has overcome and has to share with you today.

Rachel Kleppen gave birth (twice!) in another country and begin her journey of motherhood in Taiwan, while there as a missionary. And yes, we happen to be related! I LOVED this conversation with Rachel, covering everything from life on foreign soil to culture shock in America, difficult pregnancies, card games, and the difference in raising boys and girls.

This was my first time chatting with Rebekah, after her sister and previous podcast guest, Candace Alford, suggested we connect for the podcast. And what a treat this was! Rebekah was so sweet and our conversation was so much fun. I enjoyed learning about her life as a farmer's wife and her experience being a mom to three (young!) littles. Rebekah showed wisdom beyond her years and I'm grateful she agreed to share it with the rest of us!

When Hubs and I settled into a church in Fargo, we met Paula and Jonathan Geiger, who were part of a small group we had been invited to join. After we became friends, they moved away and their family grew - and grew! It was so heartwarming to catch up with Paula and hear about her life with her seven children, one of whom has a rare genetic condition.

When I was Troop Shepard for American Heritage Girls in North Dakota, I met a girl named Evie, who quickly endeared herself to me. After we moved to South Dakota, I got a text message urgently pleading for prayers for Evie's life.

Laura is Evie's mom. A mother of seven children, she is forthcoming about her likes, dislikes, strengths, and weaknesses in her parenting. She also shares incredible insight and her experience while Evie was in the hospital, knocking on death's door.

Rachel has run the gamut with regard to her experiences bringing children into this world. This episode is appropriately titled Motherhood & Miscarriage. She's been pregnant seven times and has four children - her story is a testament to the incredible woman she is! I'm so glad to have had our paths cross and to be able to share Rachel's story with all of you.

From the wilderness, through the desert, in the calm, and in the storms - Megan has been a mom through all of it. Megan's story, from becoming a mom to now finding herself between generations in her journey, is one that will resonate with each of us. She is as charming as she is sincere, and I know you'll enjoy this conversation with Megan.

Brianne Price is living out her motto to "Lean In". After experiencing incredibly difficult pregnancies and long-term effects on her mental health, Brianne shares how she has her spark back, what she has learned along the way, and how being a mom who leans in - to her marriage, her children, her career, and most importantly, to her faith in Jesus - is far more promising than being a mom who loses hope.

Tahni Cullen spoke at a women's retreat I emceed over ten years ago, and her story is one I'll never forget. I sat alone in the front row and wept as she shared about how her son, Josiah, a happy, talkative baby, regressed at the age of 19 months into the world of a non-speaking autistic diagnosis. When Josiah was around 7 or 8 years old, he began spelling, and the fire within him roared. Tahni has been the torchbearer of her son's thoughts and livelihood since.
