You Are You

When God says obey him, this includes enjoying his blessings -- and this beautiful life he's given you! Let's chat about why long waits shouldn't be draining (easier said than done but hear me out), the blessing of encouraging prophetic words, and how being "faith plus plus" people is a huge testimony in and of itself.

When you want to ambitiously steward your talents *and* sit at Jesus’s feet like Mary.

Craving a rebrand — or a life touch-up? Impatience can make us start planning out how to level up and get our dream lives, but before we get started, let’s remember to involve God in the process. We want the God of the Universe in every detail, amen? Listen on for stories of past rebrands, thoughts on curveball chapters and tests, and how to keep trusting that God truly has the life he knows we’re craving in store — if we’d only give him the pen. // Join us ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@the.yay.project⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@yaypodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

On my theme for summer 2026 and why God says being servant-hearted is key to success. Plus sneak peek at what's happening with Pink and New after a two-year hiatus. // Join us ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@the.yay.project⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@yaypodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

What do you do when you walk away from an opportunity wishing you'd handled it differently? In this episode, I'm sharing a real reflection from my week—processing an unexpected opportunity, sensing God's gentle conviction, and learning what it looks like to trust him, obey the Holy Spirit's nudges, and keep moving forward without shame. We talk about why stepping out in faith means we won't always get everything right, how God continues to work even through our imperfections, and why every new day brings opportunities to follow him with genuine hope and joy. // Join us ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@the.yay.project⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@yaypodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 💗

Friendship is such a sweet gift from the Lord *and* perhaps one of the key way he prunes us. In this episode, I'm sharing what a recent girls' trip to Prince Edward County reminded me about why lifelong loving of people is not optional (though definitely nuanced!) and why good fruit takes time to grow. It's been a while since I've done a lifestyle review but I've been feeling drawn to it again and hope you also enjoy some 'best of' recommendations as well as stories around those precious moments where we feel safe enough to open up and allow people into our God-given dreams for the season.

On the power of wholehearted vulnerability, why being boxed in may not be a bad thing, and how to reignite the fire to pursue the dreams God has placed on your heart — now!
