  • What Really IS my “God-Given” Purpose? - with Kaitlyn Cey
    Ever find yourself wondering…so, what IS my purpose? Why did God create ME, and what’s His plan for me? If so, you’re not alone. Author, teacher, coach, speaker, and non-profit founder Kaitlyn Cey is on THRIVE today sharing how she figured out her own God-given purpose, along with practical tips for discovering your own. We also tackle the topic of insecurity - where it comes from and how to get through and rid of your own - so that you can feel more confident and comfortable as the beautiful you that you are. And, if you’re short on time to pray or unsure how to weave prayer into your life more easily and effortlessly, Kaitlyn shares a few “breath prayers” in our conversation to help with that today.

  • Internet Trolls, Soul Care, & Chocolate Chip Cookies - with Manda Carpenter

    You know those friends who you can always count on to do the right thing? To speak up for what matters most? To be there with tough love but an encouraging heart and champion you through the best AND worst of this beautiful, hard, wild gift of a life? Manda Carpenter is the gal we all want in our corner and the gal we all need in the world today. As an outspoken yet grace-filled advocate online AND off, she’s been championing underdogs and giving a voice to the voiceless for years as everything from an author and podcaster to foster mom. We’re getting real and raw on THRIVE today in a candid conversation on internet trolls, soul care, and chocolate chip cookies. She gives especially great advice on getting thick skinned while staying soft hearted, responding courageously but graciously to would-be haters, and choosing curiosity over conclusions when navigating other opinions online and off.

    Have you ever met someone whose story sounds like it’s straight out of a rom com? That is Claire Henley Miller. Not only did she hike a 2,650 mile hike from Mexico to Canada with only what would fit in her backpack, but she met a guy along the way…and ended up marrying him 30 days later. But besides Claire’s love story being the actual coolest, she also shares the best life lesson from God she’s learned while hiking, and some practical essentials for any beginner or aspiring hiker.

  • When Ordinary is Really Extraordinary - With Tanner Olson


    In much of life, the little things are the big things. And for most of life, we spend our days continuing on through all of the things, little and big alike. Today on THRIVE, author, poet and speaker Tanner Olson shares so much real, raw inspiration with us on continuing on and truly thriving through it all. We talk about walking a little slower and embracing a lesser pace, we build faith through the “regular” or more routine moments, and we lean into the ordinary to discover the extraordinary.

  • “Hold Every Thought Captive”...and then what? - with Laura Smith

    If you’ve ever struggled with surrendering your stressors to God…you’re not alone. It can be hard to let go of anxieties - heck, it’s even hard to know what “letting go” of them really means, let alone how to actually do it! Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 10:5 “to hold every thought captive” -  but what does that look like in our lives today, when 70,000 thoughts pass through our brains? Best-selling author, speaker, and Bible teacher Laura Smith is a true treat on THRIVE today, and she’s helping us A this exact Q. Laura’s insight is a gift and she gives it freely, with a few important reminders about just how loved and cherished you really are (that might blow your mind).

  • Thriving Without a Stomach OR Boobs (Literally) - with Kathryn Carr

    Losing both breasts AND your stomach can be…hard to digest. (Pun intended ;) ). But Kathryn did it with grace and gumption, and she’s here on THRIVE to share her story as a bright light of encouragement for anyone in the throes of DIScouragement after life-changing diagnoses. She’s now had both a gastrectomy AND double mastectomy, so today’s episode features both her medical AND spiritual journey so far, with lots of laughs and powerful prayer along the way. We hope it inspires and uplifts you, while reminding you that no matter what you’re personally facing…He has not forsaken you, and He never will.
