www.conversationstarters.com/generator produced some great random questions. I'm certain you're going to really enjoy the (mostly) useless information. Clara joined me to wrap up the episode with tales of her Beyonce encounter and her love of pizza. Enjoy and thanks for listening. I love ya'all more than the smell of tomato plants in the summer.
For this episode we're talking about knowing and believing that God gave you a voice and the confidence to speak up for yourself and to trust in His power and timing. He's a great story weaver and I believe He wants us to be an active (not passive) member in our story. Thank you for listening. I love ya'all more than Frisch's ice.
You ever have some days where you feel heavy? Not like "ate too much at the buffet" heavy, but like worn out and worn down emotionally to the point that your heart is just heavy? I started out Monday feeling like a real rockstar, and then it pretty much fell apart from there. But isn't that the way life goes? How do we react when things don't go our way or when our lives are disrupted? This episode is all about practicing self-control when you really just want to punch somebody, and also taking ...
Just a few public service announcements to start off this episode. The more you know. 🌠 Next, we're talking about teaching our kids to have their own boundaries and also respect others boundaries. Lastly, I had an ugly cry melt-down Monday night and had to really seek forgiveness after acknowledging that I was not being content in my circumstances and was not opening my eyes to all the blessings around me. Big shout out to my mom, Deb, for always being there for me when I throw a tantrum and fo...
Do you know what it's like to have a fellow Christian mama tell you that she's afraid for the future of her children solely because of the color of their skin and the current unrest in our country? Can you imagine if you lived every day with anxiety that one wrong move by your children could mean the end of their life? I'm so grateful to be able to talk with Natasha in this episode as she shares a raw and honest perspective on her life as a black woman in America. More than anything I hope you'l...
I'm proposing coupons for a free box of wine for anyone who practices the correct procedure in the school drop-off line. There has to be some incentive to do it right! I'm making even more changes to my daily habits and eating style. Specifically and tragically, I'm ending a 10 year relationship with diet soda. If you're a parent, you know the issue of 'screens' is a real hot topic and so I'm passing on some thoughts and practices on how I've tried to protect my kids in the technology world. Loo...
I'm so thankful for anyone who listens! Dont be mad, but I broke down and got my 11 year old a smart phone. There's a good explanation. Promise. A PSA to myself, all parents, and watchers of children, STAY PARANOID. at all times. And, as the title implies, I'm accepting that I have a major problem with food. You're the best. Thanks for listening.
Meet my oldest two kiddos and hear about beans, mean bus drivers, and all kinds of grade skipping. Thanks for listening!
I'm taking on a full house purge and invite you to join me on a 'donate a trunk-full of your junk weekly' challenge. Also, my pastor kicked my tail (figuratively, not literally) with a message Sunday on forgiveness and I wanted to pass on a quick recap and my honest reaction. I hope you enjoy and as always, thanks for listening.
30 episodes! Thank you so much to anyone who has listened thus far. I appreciate you all and welcome your feedback. Episode thirty is a personal reprimand to myself to be more hospitable and to stop thinking so much about things that are outside of my control.
For this episode I interview Jill (again!) and her husband Heath with a questionnaire about their 'top 3' for multiple topics. With almost 17 years of marriage, they share about their favorite vacations, Olympic dreams, strengths and weaknesses of their marriage, pet peeves, and their family goals. They're funny and cute together and I loved every minute of talking to them. I know you will too. And as always, thanks for listening.
My kids are back to school and it was an ordeal to get them there. I need help understanding leggings. Send me all the information. What three things are you doing when you hit the jackpot? I'm looking forward most to no Tupperware. Thanks for listening!

No, that's not a play on words. Life has been pretty mundane and low-key this week and I'm A-okay with it. Here's a few highlights-a maniac screaming at me on the highway, Sonic sucks, and haters gonna hate (but also free publicity). Ya'all are amazing and as always, thanks for listening.
For episode 25 we're finally getting some male perspective. Dan is a husband, a father to two daughters, a member of the Army National Reserves, and an almost PhD graduate. He shares about recent major life changes, the difference as he sees it between being a father versus dad, and about his role in the births of both of his daughters (one of them at home!). I loved talking with Dan because he really challenged my perspective on the #me too movement, gender equality, sexual harassment, and He-m...
Kerry and I went to school together and grew up just minutes away from each other. Even though I shunned her for being just a year younger than me in school, she was gracious enough to be interviewed for this episode and share some very intimate details about her life. We talked about her being a child of recovering addicts, managing a relationship with a narcissist, and surviving sleepless years with young children. Kerry reminds us of the importance of work ethic and is proof that you can brea...
Jill is back! For this episode we answer conversation questions and 'would you rather' scenarios. We're covering some super important topics including hobbies, giving up bathing, weird habits, Ohio as the meanest state in the nation, LSD, regrets of our youth, and travel goals. We also get really serious and disclose our spirit animals, explain our passion for the Olympics, review survival tips for solitary confinement, and debate the moon landing. Basically, we get super deep and I know you're ...
In today's episode I'm trying to figure out how to keep my kids from seeing other people's butts and from also seeing too much personal displays of affection in public. I'm also taking it all the way back to my first interaction with my second husband and learning how to clue in to red flags even from the start while dating. Happy Independence Day! And as always, thanks for listening.
Ya'all. I've never rabbit trailed on topics so hard in all my life. I started recording with no outline or script and somehow managed to run my mouth for over 40 minutes. I'm talking about the police, how not to get hit with a taser, admitting when you're wrong, and the useless thing that is worry. Also, somebody please help me out to know what was wrong with my car. It's a real mystery. And as always, thanks for listening.
Emily was my maid of honor, best friend, and roommate. Our friendship ended abruptly, but we're talking today 10 years later about how to have grace, understanding, and forgiveness in friendships. We also both openly talk about our experiences with therapists and she shares her honest experiences in a blended family. I'm so grateful to her for being willing to record this interview with me. You'll definitely want to hear what she has to say. And as always, thanks for listening.
Danielle has been a consistent friend for the past 28 years and counting. For this episode, she helps us to navigate the weird and confusing worlds of essential oils, homeschooling, and organic foods. Danielle is a wife of 14 years, Mom to four children (2 that she birthed at home!), Jesus-follower, and small business owner. She's definitely one of my favorite people. I just know you're going to love hearing what she has to say. And as always, thanks for listening. Check out her website for more...
Today's guest is a friend since elementary school. I broke her Skip-It in second grade and even so, she agreed to be interviewed. That's how you know she's good people. Marilee is a wife for 15 years, a mom to 4 kids (3 that she had at the same time!), a nurse, PTO mom, and one of the most honest and genuine people that I've talked with for this podcast. She shares with us about her marriage tips, infertility, and being confident in who you are. I know you're going to enjoy hearing what she has ...
In this episode I'm talking with my sister (-in-law), Ashley. She's a military wife, mom of two girls (who are easily the most beautiful nieces in the world), and one of the strongest women that I know. For this episode, we get into some super critical topics including: movies that make you cry, dry shampoo, owning your personal style, joining an adult softball league, mascara, and TV series that you need to watch. I like her a lot. I'm sure you will too. And as always, thanks for listening.

In this episode I talk with my friend of 25+ years about a multitude of topics. In a world (my world) where moms (me) aren't always able to keep up to date with news and important information, Katy to the rescue. As I mentioned before, she is way smarter than me, has a great memory, appreciates sarcasm, and makes it a priority to stay 'in-the-know'. From internet privacy to masterpiece theatre, you're sure to learn something.
Today's guest interview is a real dandy. Angela lives a life that's full of positivity. She's ready with her pepper spray and has made it her goal to be the best sex education teacher this side of the Mississippi. A self-proclaimed dog-lady and all around animal activist, it was a joy to talk with her today. As always, thanks for listening.
When Christians get together to talk, the lingo flows pretty strong. As always, thanks for listening.
In this episode I'm talking with my amazing friend, Jill. She's a Christ-follower, wife, mom, servant, and wanna-be car expert. As always, thanks so much for listening.
