  • 52. The Single Sessions: What Not to Say to the Single People in Your Life

    When you are talking to your single friends, daughters, sisters, sister-in-laws, friends, etc. do you find yourself afraid of hurting their feelings? Not sure what to talk about? Not sure how to relate?

    Well, let me help ya out with this short, light-hearted, but very real list of things NOT TO SAY to the singles in your life. And more importantly, a few simple mindset shifts you can make that will change your perception and help you connect more deeply with the unmarried ones around you ... even if you have no idea what it's like to be an adult single woman. 

    Single gals and married gals aren't that different. One relationship status isn't better than another. Not all single women are unhappy and not all married women are happy. 

    Today I'm getting real (and a little sarcastic, sorry, couldn't help myself) to help you guys build curiosity, respect, and connection.

  • 51. The Single Sessions: An Almost 40-Year Virgins Thoughts on Waiting for Marriage, The Purity Culture and True Empowerment

    I could talk for hours about this journey. I could write books. Many books. But in today's episode, I just wanted to get some of my most helpful, true, and real-life thoughts and experiences out to you guys in a short, digestible episode. 

    In this episode, I'll hit on things like:

    • Was it worth the wait?
    • Is virginity the same thing as purity?
    • Would I do it the same way again?
    • Does having sex make us an adult? 
    • Are empowered women the ones who "do what they want with their body?" 
    • Why waiting did more for my faith and confidence than anything in my life
    • The array of thoughts I had over the years
    • And more!
    • Enjoy, be encouraged, and know that you are AREN'T ALONE. Pass this one along to friends and send me an email at [email protected] or find me on Instagram and send me a DM with your thoughts. 

      Can't wait to connect with YOU!

    • 50. The Single Sessions: My Singleness Story

      This week I am starting off "The Single Sessions" (a 4-part series) with an overview of my journey! This is a story of singleness, yes. But more than that it is a story of dreams not coming true, Obedience when it hurts, how God tears down idols, where true satisfaction is found, God's faithfulness, how we are shaped through heartbreak, and so much more. 

      It doesn't matter if you are single or married, my prayer is you'll find some nuggets of truth about human nature, who our God is, and how we were all designed to have our desires deeply met in this episode. Ready to refocus the eyes of your heart? Good. Let's go!

      Listen, share, review, and hit me up on Instagram to give me your feedback!

    • 49. A Conversation about Leadership

      Today on the show I'm chatting with Heather Blass. She has held various leadership positions in her church for nearly 15 years while being a wife and mom. Together we talk about why all of us are really leaders, how to start leading yourself, the challenges of feeling like you don't belong or aren't seen as an "equal" in your space, and much more. 

      Do you lead a team? Do you want to someday? Are you starting to get a sense that you need to take some leadership of you own life?

      Great... this episode is for YOU!

    • 48. Listen In: A Christian Life Coaching Session with the Wise and Wonderful Wendy

      In today's episode, you are invited in to listen as I help Wendy think through a big opportunity that has recently presented itself. When she arrived at the call she was feeling restless and not quite sure what her next steps should be. Together we dig deep into her desires, see if those align with God's desires for her, and feed the truth that it's ok to ask God for things, want more, and take big risks!

      As always, listen and be encouraged that we are all pretty the same! We all want to make the most of our life but often hesitate to take big risks. We want to please God, do the best for our families, AND live out our gifts and calling. 

      Wendy is a picture of every woman, in so many ways. Listen, learn, think, and know you are NOT ALONE.

    • 47. 7 Steps to Create a Highly Effective Schedule + Why We Engage in Self Improvement as Christians

      Welcome to another episode in which I share all the goods with you! Today, I am giving you my formula for managing your time and energy well WHILE enjoying life. I call this "How to Create a Highly Effective Schedule." In this episode, I start with a long (6 min!) intro, reminding us all WHY we do Self-Improvement work, and how to keep that work in a Biblical place. Then I shift into giving you the exact steps I use personally and with my Coaching clients, to take healthy control of their life and create more joy and fruit and less stress and anxiety. Along the way, I discuss common hangups women face and toss in nuggets of wisdom to help these ideas "click."

      The 7 Steps:

      1) Write Down Your Ideal Week

      2) Build in Margin

      3) Cut Stuff Out + Add Play 

      4) Plan Tasks Based on How Much Energy They Require

      5) Pick 3 Top Priorities for Each Day

      6) Have a Separate "General To-Do" List that Can Be Pushed to Tomorrow

      7) Revamp this Schedule Each Week, and Each Night

    • 46. A Conversation about Parenting - Part 2

      On today's show, I have the special honor of welcoming back Sarah Gregory, otherwise known as my Mom!

      Listen in as I sit and talk face to face about what worked with her and my Dad's parenting, what I remember, what was hard for her, and things that shaped our family dynamic, our own inner confidence as children, as so much more.

      If you have children of any age still at the home, this conversation will feel like a gold mine of parenting wisdom and resources to you. If you don't have children, it will still be very enlightening as it might reveal to you some things that might have been missing, and you allow God to reparent you now, as an adult.

      My folks weren't perfect, nobody is! But over the years they worked out a lot, learned a lot, and we are here to dig up the nuggets of truth to help you today. Listen in and enjoy!

    • 43. A Conversation about Forgiveness

      Today I'm chatting with special guest and fellow sister in ministry, Nichole Chavez, about forgiveness. Specifically, forgiving other people. Even more specifically, forgiving people who don't "deserve it" and haven't asked for it. 

      Nichole shares her story (Trigger Warning: story contains an account of physical abuse) and how at first she tried to bury it, pretending like it didn't happen. That, however, didn't work in the long run and God instead invited her into a journey of healing of forgiveness. 

      Her story is beautiful, full of grace, strength, and the redemptive power of our God. Listen and be encouraged, driven to your knees, and set free to start your own journey of forgiveness.
