This is for the women courageously choosing faith and heart in a world driven by sight and success. Here you’ll receive life-giving encouragement, be pointed back to the goodness of God, and cultivate a deep sense of trust in your unique path.
In this unscripted episode, hear how God is convicting me in this season to simply say 'yes' before jumping into logistics. We often prioritize planning over obedience. But what if having everything in line, pristine, and perfect isn't actually the key to doing something well? I truly believe obedience is the key to excellence. Be encouraged in this episode to trust God with your faithful and brave 'yes'.

The Courage to Continue
How do you continue when faith has called your steps into a new land, where more remains unseen and undiscovered than known and familiar? When dreams and hopes feel like vague visions of a wishful future than an achievable reality? How do you keep going when so much feels ungraspable, like sand slipping through your hands?
In the episode, be encouraged to courageously choose to continue. And be reminded of why not giving up matters so much.

Trusting God’s Unfailing Character
Walking by faith rather than relying on sight can be disorienting and confusing. But we can always come back to the truth of God's unfailing character. Even when we can't see what's next, we know He's with us and for us. In this episode, be encouraged to hold fast to faith by focusing on who God is and not what's going on around you.

Faithful With What You’ve Been Given
We won't always understand what God's entrusted to us or what He calls us to. While fear can take over when we don't feel equipped or qualified, God doesn't make mistakes. In this episode, be encouraged to continue being faithful with what you've been given.

On Co-Creation: The Reshare
I've shared these words before, but this topic has weighed heavy on my heart and mind in recent weeks. I share them with you again with the belief that co-creation is also listening to the nudges of the Spirit wherever they may lead.

The Sacred Act of Listening
Being able to listen well and respond to the voice of the Father is a huge part of the faith and heart journey. It's His guidance that gives us the confidence and assurance we're heading in the right direction even when we don't see how all the pieces will come together. In this episode, I'll share encouragement and reflections on the sacred act of listening.

You Are Here and That Matters
You are here, and that counts for something. Maybe that's everything? Your presence here, against all the odds, is a declaration of God's eternal and pure love. He knit you together for this exact moment.
Be reminded of everything you are – that you are. And step into the day, the week, and your life with the knowledge that you are here – and that matters.

The Fruit Will Come
Hard work and prayer have sustained you, but now the sight of empty fields feels like too much to bear. You wonder, “Will there ever be fruit?” as you take a seat where you are, gripping the barren ground you’re hoping will give way to life.
These are the seasons of choosing faith over sight, of trusting that long-held dreams and faithfully planted choices are developing roots underneath the surface. While your hands may have surrendered those seeds into the soil of your life, they’ve never left God’s hands. He is still faithfully tending to each and every one, personally overseeing their preservation.
The fruit will come.

Everything Will Be Ok
"At one stop along the coastline, I found myself alone, overlooking a stunning expanse of deep waters speckled with small islands. Wind was whipping my hair as I stood praying. My eyes were peeled for birds as I brought my confusion and overwhelm to God, hoping the Dublin experience wouldn’t repeat itself.
But no bird poop ever came. No thundering voice from the sky did, either, but the wind seemed to wash over me with the words, “Everything will be ok.”
That’s what faith and heart-led decisions are based on – the truth that His plan and His process won’t lead us where His grace won’t sustain us. His paths are steadfast love and faithfulness, so we can be confident that when He tells us everything will be ok, it will be."

Choosing Faith When You Want To Give Up
I think there’s a common misconception that faith should naturally rise to the occasion, filling your heart with the strength and wisdom you need to make the right choice. But I’m reminded time and again that faith is a choice. More often than not, it’s the choice that goes against the grain of what feels comfortable and natural. And that’s ok.
I think it’s more honest to admit faith seems to flicker on and off. Sometimes it’s radiant and strong, other times it feels like barely enough. What I’m learning is that barely is enough. Through God’s grace, that faint light will break through the dark clouds of doubt that settle over us at times.

Birthday Reflections
With a birthday just around the corner, I'm spending extra time reflecting on my experiences this past year. In this episode, hear what I've learned about choosing faith and heart through my own personal journey, and how often God doesn't ask us to walk a linear life path. While the decisions He calls us to may not make sense to us in the moment, we can trust His process as we faithfully choose obedience and sow the seeds He's asked us to.

Don’t Turn Back
Don’t turn back.
Moving forward can be terrifying because it often calls you to step outside your comfort zone and be stretched by newness. But there’s no turning back, no looking over the shoulder to reminisce on the room before. God wants our eyes on Him, keeping our focus upward as we rely on His great strength to be made perfect in our weakness.
In this episode, hear my personal experience learning this timeless truth and how God spoke to my heart amid a transition to keep me from turning back.

Carried By God’s Grace
I was sick last week. Throughout my recovery, I was challenged and encouraged to rest in God’s grace. In this episode, I share my sick-day reflections and testimony of how God’s strength and way-making didn’t end when I couldn’t offer my best. If you’ve felt discouraged by setbacks, I invite you to rest in the knowledge you’re held in His mighty hand.

The Slow Process of Becoming
Direction can be a magical thing when held with open hands. But there seems to be this massive pressure, at least this unspoken rule that once you have the picture in mind, you have to figure out how to bridge the gap between now and what will be.
But becoming is often a slow and steady process best trusted in God’s hands. In this episode, be encouraged to find purpose in the process.

Co-Creation With the Ultimate Creator
When we're called, we're not just supposed to sit back and let God do all the work. He absolutely can and will provide and make a way, but we have the joy and responsibility of partnering with Him as co-creators. In this episode, be encouraged to accept the invitation as co-creator and faithfully follow God's lead one step at a time.

You Don’t Have to Go Quickly to Do Greatly
We can be the last ones at the dinner table. The last ones out of the car. The last ones thinking through what to say or do. It doesn’t mean we’re behind. Or that we’re on the wrong path. Maybe, just maybe, it’s our slow path with God that builds more momentum than swift effort ever could.

Past Experiences Don’t Limit God’s Capacity to Use You
So often, we carry the shame of past experiences on our shoulders. But is it really our burden to carry? I don't think so.
In this episode, I share what God's placed on my heart about a miraculous thing that's available to all of us – His grace. He is always moving and planting seeds, even during seasons we'd rather forget and push down.
