Their heart for family, business, life, and others is so inspiring! We dive into topics like having small dreams, mom guilt, communication, trust and more… Let's get into it!

Fall is our favorite season! We love the cool weather, the colors, the coziness that comes with flannel sheets and thick socks, pumpkin bread and baking, and of course lighting our fireplace!

As we celebrate 20 years of pumpkin season on the farm, we are excited to share some BTS stories and tell you how it all began. We are also talking about our favorite fall music and some of our favorite fall activities we do as a family! So grab a hot cup of tea, a blanket to snuggle with, and tune in.

We love celebrating our anniversary every year! In fact, we treat it like a national holiday. We deeply honor it and set time aside to celebrate it ... in a BIG way!

Whether you plan a getaway, watch your wedding video, read your vows, go to a simple dinner, or exchange gifts, prioritizing your anniversary is important.

Remember, the health of your marriage determines the health of your life. So let's commit to making marriage a priority!

• You Are The Girl For The Job by Jess Connolly

If you have been listening to the podcast for a while then you know we are all about rhythms. We believe they're foundational and they bring balance and stability to anything in life!

Today we are joined by Gabe and Rebekah Lyons - fellow lovers of creating rhythms, slowing down, and taking inventory of their life. And with 22 years of marriage, 4 kids, a full career, and a thriving ministry they have learned that it is never too late to establish what you want your life to be about. We encourage you to lean into the wisdom they share in this episode!

Rebekah's book, Rhythms of Renewal, releases in October. Pre-order it - you won't be disappointed!

A few weeks ago we went to visit our friends Brian and Mary Heffernan of Five Mary's Farms! Wow! What an experience it was! From being on the ranch, sleeping in cabins, enjoying amazing farm to table food, and having even better conversation. The whole trip reminded us of the dreams in our hearts!

Brian + Mary have been together for 14 years and have 4 beautiful little girls. They left a busy, corporate life in Silicon Valley to pursue a life of ranching and raising children in a rural small town. They have rediscovered success and are on the narrow road toward their dreams. They are big dreamers who are not afraid of taking action on their dreams!

Their unique story is inspiring and resonates with our definition of success and life so much! We are really excited to share this conversation with you!

We are so excited to have our good friends Ryan + Danielle Walker on the show today! They're the true picture of "for better or worse, in sickness and health," so commonly heard in wedding vows. And through each season they've walked, their marriage has only grown stronger.

Danielle is a New York Times Best-Selling Author to several cookbooks, all which came from overcoming her sickness through changing her what she eats. And Ryan is a brilliant tech-guy who has created several apps that build connection and growth for businesses on social media.

This episode is all about how walking through an autoimmune diagnosis and losing a child has only made them stronger, individually and as a couple. This is a transparent conversation packed with incredible wisdom!

PS - we also have this incredible conversation around technology and how we strive to stay present when the phone and social media are major distractions.

It's the final episode in our friendship series and it's been so fun having our friends on the show to discuss community and lifelong friendship! Today we are talking about the difference between community and friends - which comes down to love drenched accountability. Community goes beyond catching up, just hanging out, and showing up for the big moments. It is about committing to every moment, leaning into growth, and being a constant stance of love and support for your friends (both in good and hard times). Community is a beautiful and biblical thing that we hope you experience!

This week, I am joined around the table with best friends - Dan, Mueller, and my brother Zach. We have been friends since kindergarten and have been friends ever since. We always come back to the farm to hang out around the campfire no matter where life takes us. Through all the seasons of life, we are constantly sharpening the iron in one another - which is crucial to building friendships that last!

We're kicking off a fun series on the podcast all about friendship! Finding community is the most needed thing for the human soul (but also the most difficult thing to find!). There is a difference between being friends and being in community together. We are excited to dive into this series!

Up first ... Dan Meichtry! We sit next to Dan every single day in the office and he is around when we record the episodes, but today he is joining the conversation! We are talking all about friendship, intermittent fasting, and taking you behind the scenes around the table we are building (an 8 ft. conference table!).
