Even the strongest believers get tired. You pray, you serve, you show up faithfully — but sometimes the results don’t match the effort, and fatigue starts to settle in. In this episode of The Powder Room, we’re getting honest about what it means to be weary while doing well.

We’ll explore the human side of weariness, why feeling tired doesn’t mean you’ve lost faith, and how to find grace in your process. If you’ve been doing everything “right” but still feel drained, this episode will remind you that you’re not alone — and that your season of sowing is not in vain.

In this episode, we continue our discussion on what is means to be "Single and Content".  We’ll talk about what it truly means to be fulfilled on your own, how to avoid seeking someone else to “save” or “rescue” you, and the strength that comes from self-awareness and independence. We’ll also explore the unique benefits of marrying later in life—like increased clarity, maturity, and stability—that can create healthier, more intentional partnerships.

Whether you’re single, dating, or just reflecting, this conversation is about embracing your season, thriving where you are, and preparing yourself for love from a place of wholeness.

After walking through the powerful marriage journeys of our guests in the Why Did I Get Married? series, it’s time to shift the conversation back to singleness. In this episode, we’ll unpack why the greatest gift you can bring into a relationship is contentment in your singleness. Being single doesn’t mean you’re incomplete or living at a deficit—your worth isn’t defined by your relationship status.

In the final installment of The Powder Room’s Why Did I Get Married? series, we sit down with Lawrence and Joycelyn Sheard, a couple who prove that love has no expiration date. Married for just 2.5 years, their story is one of second chances, unexpected blessings and a love that is equal parts heartfelt and enjoyable.

Lawrence, a widower and Joycelyn, previously divorced and widowed — never imagined they would marry again. But God had other plans. What neither was seeking, they found in each other: Joy, companionship and a partnership built on mutual respect and honest communication.

In this candid conversation, Lawrence and Joycelyn let us peek into the beauty of encountering love later in life—a love that’s fun, spicy, and ever evolving. Their journey is a reminder that it’s never too late to experience love, laughter and God’s perfect timing.

In this episode of The Powder Room’s Why Did I Get Married? series, we sit down with Pablo and Kesha Smith, high school sweethearts who met at just 15 years old and have now been married for 26 years. Their journey is one of intentional love, rooted in faith, boundaries, and a commitment to building something stronger than the cycles they came from.

With toxic patterns and broken homes on both sides of their families, Pablo and Kesha made a vow early on that their marriage would be different. For Pablo, that meant being the kind of father he never had—present, engaged, and fully invested in the lives of his sons. For Kesha, it meant standing firm in boundaries and creating a safe, healthy foundation for their family.

Together, they share how their faith in God has been the glue that keeps them grounded through challenges, and how commitment—not convenience—has carried them through. This is a story of resilience, redemption, and the power of choosing to rewrite your family’s story.

Though they married for love, Osby and Kai stay married for something deeper—the sacred vow they made to God and each other. Their story is one of faith, growth and choosing each other every day, even when it’s hard. This episode is filled with wisdom, vulnerability, and the kind of truth-telling that reminds us why marriage is more than a feeling — it's a commitment.
