InYourShoes with Jessica
What happens when you have to build a life, a family, and a future from an absolute blank slate? In Part 1 of this podcast, we step into the shoes of Jessica, who grew up a self-described loner with no template for what a safe, loving family looks like. At just 15 years old, she became a mother.
She sits down with us to share the raw reality of those early years, navigating teen motherhood, surviving an abusive relationship, and the day she found the courage to leave with absolutely nothing but her daughter in her arms.
This episode is a masterclass in resilience, the power of community, and finding faith in the darkest corners. If you have ever felt like you were navigating life without a map, this episode is for you.
Hit play to step into her shoes.
(Note: This is Part 1 of a two-part series. Part 2 drops next week!)

We share stories, laughter, tears, and the things that keep us going. This isn’t about fixing grief, it’s about feeling it, talking about it, and knowing you’re not alone.
It's long, but I promise you it is worth your time.

Husband vs. Host: The Spontaneous Episode
This episode was totally unplanned but somehow, it’s one of my favorites (for now, lol). My husband randomly said, “I want to ask you some questions… but on your podcast,” and I was like, why not? So we hit record, and things got real (and hilarious) fast.
Expect behind-the-scenes truths, unexpected laughs, and a little reminder of why I started this podcast in the first place.
I hope you enjoy this one it’s a fun little break in transmission before we jump back into our usual topics.
See you in your shoes 😉 Stay tuned!
