So come sit with me on the couch as we chat, laugh, and find grace for the beautiful chaos of motherhood.
Running on Empty? A Christ-Centered Conversation on Mom Burnout & Finding Rest Again with Abimbola Akanji
Motherhood is beautiful and deeply purposeful—but it can also leave us feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and running on empty. And what if burnout isn’t something we’re meant to just push through? In this episode, I sit down with parent coach Abimbola Akanji for a real and grace-filled conversation about the quiet signs of burnout, why rest feels so hard, and how moms can begin to care for themselves without guilt. Through a Christ-centered lens, we share practical, life-giving ways to reconnect with God, release the pressure to do it all, and find true rest in the middle of everyday motherhood.________________________________________________________________

Why Didn’t Anyone Teach Us This About Our Bodies with Emma Goff
Why didn’t anyone teach us this about our bodies?
If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body - especially after pregnancy, postpartum, or loss - you are not alone. And you’re not broken.
In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Emma Goff, a cyclical doula and fertility awareness educator, to talk about something so many of us were never taught: how to actually understand our cycles and reconnect with our bodies in a gentle, grace-filled way.
We dive into simple steps to start tracking your cycle, breaking down fertility awareness so it doesn’t feel overwhelming, and the truth behind common myths about hormonal birth control. We also talk about honoring your body in tender seasons and why body literacy matters not just for us - but for the next generation we’re raising.
This conversation is honest, healing, and deeply needed. My prayer is that it reminds you that your body isn’t something to fight against… it’s something to understand, care for, and steward with grace.
