In this week's episode I talk about the very simple tool I use to stay on track as a wife, mom, business owner, podcaster, and like the 97 other things women are ;) and how keeping Christ as the focus changes everything.

Have you ever heard the term "iron sharpens iron?" Do you know what it means? In this week's episode I talk a little bit about a time in my life where I desperately longed for deep and meaningful friendships with people who love Jesus and would encourage me in my faith. I share how I went about finding my "bestie in Christ" and what had to change in me to be a better friend. Listen in as I share how you can find friends that lift you up and help you become the best version of yourself.

In 2008, the US economy crashed right around the same time we found out we were pregnant. Eric and I had both lost our jobs, then we lost our home. Listen in as I share our story and the one thing we did to insure God's provision over our lives, as well as encouragement for those who may be going through something similar today.

In this episode I share A LOT of my story- from my brief run in with domestic violence, to my formerly held belief in the feminist lie that women (or anyone for that matter) can be promiscuous without consequences, both emotionally and spiritually. I share how I've taken my past experiences and reframed the sex conversation with my own children, and how we as parents need to be hyper aware of what out culture is teaching our children on the subject as well.

In this episode I share how being obedient in living an authentic, transparent life of mess and mission together can bring our un-saved friends closer to Jesus, and some encouragement on how you can do the same.

THE SUMMER SERIES : Join me as I share about one of the hardest things I've ever done, having a conversation I didn't want to have, on a subject I didn't want to speak up on, about a part of our family's story that is painful- our son Bo's injury. During THE SUMMER SERIES I dive deeper into my personal story, sharing hard things and challenging moments where God has SHOWN UP and given me TONS of grace (love and compassion that I don't deserve). Over the first 22 episodes of the All My Favorite People podcast I have tried my best to shine my little light on stories from people who are doing good and hard things in this world. People who are genuinely "being the change they want to see in the world." I know I've chosen some tougher, not as talked about topics that might be considered "hot-button", but my goal has always been to look at our current culture through the lens of the Bible. While I realize that is counter-cultural in every way, I wanted THE SUMMER SERIES to be my opportunity to share more about why I personally love God so much, what He has "saved me" from, and how I have, at age 38, come to a place in my life where I WANT to follow His instructions. I find the road to be easier, and the burden lighter, by choosing this life.

My brave friend Emily Wilhelm shares her story of her battle with depression and self-harm in an effort to shine a light on a still-taboo subject in Christian circles.
