Rooted & Rising is a faith-based podcast for women growing through real life—on the farm, through the adoption journey, and in the everyday moments that test our strength and deepen our faith. Hosted by Abby, a farm wife, teacher, and hopeful mama, this show offers encouragement for those walking through seasons of waiting, purpose, and prayer. Each episode is filled with honest conversations about life’s messiness, the beauty of being planted where you are, and the grace that helps us rise through it all.

Stop Thinking, Start Doing: Flipping the Script on Your Inner Critic
Have you ever felt trapped in a loop of negative thoughts? In today’s episode, we dive into why our brains are wired for safety and how that "safety" often keeps us from the growth God has for us. Drawing from the grain cart during harvest and the wisdom of UnF*** Yourself, I explores why we aren’t our thoughts—we are what we do. Learn how to use your "action muscle," find perfect peace through Isaiah 26:4, and discover why the quickest way to change your mind is to move your feet.
In this episode, we talk about:
Why your unconscious mind tries to keep you safe (and why you should ignore it).
The difference between a thought and an action.
Abby’s "dump on the go" failure and how action created courage.
Anchoring your trust in the "Eternal Rock."

Together in the Field: Reconnecting to Joy
This week on Rooted & Rising, I’m sharing a moment from the grain cart—dusty boots, golden skies, and all. In the middle of harvest season chaos, I found myself reconnecting to the joy in some of the most unexpected and expected ways: being in the field with my husband, not side-by-side, but still deeply together. The farm has always been a big part of my life and I'm so excited to have been able to fully embrace it this year.
We’re talking about sacred togetherness, the beauty of showing up even when life is busy, and the little moments that remind us joy is still here. Whether you're knee-deep in harvest or in your own season of hard work, this episode is for you.
