How To Read the Entire Bible In One Year: Lessons from a 365 Day Journey
This past year, I read the entire Bible—cover to cover—from Genesis to Revelation… and it changed everything.
In this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I made it through all 66 books (yes, even Leviticus!), what tools made it doable as a busy mom of two, and the unexpected ways God transformed my heart, mindset, and daily life through His Word.
I’ll talk about:
How I used The Bible Recap to stay consistent and actually understand what I was reading
Why I chose to listen to the audio version of the Bible and how it helped me reach my goal
The spiritual and emotional shifts I experienced—from less anxiety to more purpose
The moment I said “yes” to leading a women’s ministry I didn’t see coming
Whether you’ve never read the Bible or you’ve started and stopped a dozen times, this episode will encourage you to take that first step—or your next one—with no shame and lots of grace. Because the truth? You don’t have to do it perfectly for it to change your life.

Aging is inevitable—but weakness is not. In today’s episode of Be Ambitious, we’re talking about why strength training isn’t just for athletes or bodybuilders—it’s a non-negotiable for every woman who wants to age well, stay strong, and feel empowered in her body.
We break down six powerful reasons women should be lifting weights at every stage of life:
Preventing muscle loss and staying functional
Protecting bones and reducing osteoporosis risk
Supporting metabolism and healthy weight
Improving balance and reducing fall risk
Boosting mental health and body confidence
Enhancing energy, independence, and quality of life
Whether you’re brand new to strength training or already love lifting, this episode will give you the motivation—and science-backed reasons—you need to start strength training today!
