    Are you a teen girl drowning in the pressure of club volleyball, travel soccer, competitive dance, or basketball? Do you ever feel like your jersey defines your worth—that your stats, playing time, or coach’s opinion are what make you valuable? Girl, this episode is for you.

    In this powerful conversation on FR, Let’s Talk, we get real about the mental, emotional, and spiritual toll of competitive sports. From the late nights, endless tournaments, and recruitment pressures to the quiet ache of feeling unseen, we’ll unpack what happens when the sport you love starts owning your life.

    But here’s the truth: your identity isn’t in a jersey — it’s in Jesus. 💛

    Together, we’ll dive into:
    ✨ The shift from joy to performance-driven pressure in sports
    ✨ How constant training, games, and expectations steal peace and joy
    ✨ The toll on your family, friendships, and mental health
    ✨ Biblical truth about your worth, rest, and identity in Christ (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, Matthew 11:28, Colossians 3:23)
    ✨ Permission to step back, redefine success, and protect your soul
    ✨ Encouragement for those who still love the game to play with purpose, freedom, and joy

    Whether you’re an athlete ready to walk away, or you’re still passionate about the game but need a reset on identity, this episode will remind you:

    You are not your position.
    You are not your playing time.
    You are not your highlight reel.

    You are God’s masterpiece!

    Chosen, loved, and enough, on and off the court! 🏐⚽🏀

    If you’ve ever whispered, “I’m tired, but I don’t know how to say it,” lean in. This is the pep talk your soul has been waiting for.

    👉 Share this episode with a teammate, coach, or your mom. Let’s spread the truth that sports can be part of your life, but they can’t be your whole life.

  • “Read the Room," Bestie: When Friends Talk About Other Friends – ft. My Daughters!
    Jul 22 2025

    ✨ Send your questions & love here! (PS: I read every message, but can’t reply to Buzzsprout "fanmail" — still, keep ‘em coming or email/message me directly!) 💌

    Okay real quick... can we all agree that one of the worst feelings is when you're hanging out with a friend, and they spend the entire time talking about other friends, other plans, other inside jokes you weren’t a part of?? Like... hello?? I’m literally right here!😒

    In this special bonus drop, I’m joined by two very special guests—my daughters, Raleigh and Hendrix 💕—for a girl chat that is honest, unfiltered, and so needed in this season of growing up and figuring out friendships.

    We’re diving into what happens in your heart when a friend unintentionally (or maybe very intentionally 👀) makes you feel like you don’t measure up... like you’re just the stand-in friend until the “better one” shows up.

    Jealousy? Sadness? Awkward much? We felt all of it—and we’re talking about it.

    Here’s what we unpack together:
    ✨ Why it stings when your friend won’t stop talking about other people
    ✨ How comparison creeps in and makes you question your worth
    ✨ The power of being present with the person you’re with
    ✨ Why “reading the room” is a friendship superpower
    ✨ How to set the tone for safer, more intentional hangouts
    ✨ And the one thing we wish every girl knew about making people feel included!

    This is the perfect episode for tween and teen girls who are navigating the weird, wild world of middle school friendships. It’s a reminder that you deserve friends who see you, show up for you, and make space for your heart, not just your presence.

    So whether you’ve been the girl feeling left out, the one unintentionally doing the leaving out (👀 no shame, just growth!), or the mom trying to help your daughter put words to that yucky post-playdate feeling… this one's for YOU.

    Grab a snack, bring your sister or your BFF, and come hang with us. It’s about to get real—in the best way!

    🎧 Press play, and let’s talk about it. For real.

    Hey besties! 💕 Okay, okay—I know I said I’m on a 6-week break to prep for Season 2 (and trust, it's gonna be 🔥)... buuuut I couldn’t help myself. Your questions are TOO good and TOO real to wait. So—SURPRISE! Bonus episode drop! 🎉🎧

    This one’s for every tween + teen girl who's ever wondered:

    "Do I really have to forgive someone who’s not even sorry?" 🙄

    AND...

    "What if I pray and feel like God’s not even listening?" 😔

    We’re diving into TWO 🔥 listener questions—Maddi’s stuck in the middle of some messy middle school friendship drama (ugh, been there 😩📱), and Piper’s heart is heavy, wondering if God hears her prayers at all.

    Inside this episode:
    💬 What the Bible really says about forgiving without an apology (hello, Matthew 18 + Romans 5!)
    💅 Why forgiveness ≠ trust (yes girl, there’s a big difference)
    ✨ How boundaries aren’t mean—they’re holy 👏
    🧥 What Joseph’s silence-season can teach us when heaven feels quiet
    🙏 And what to do when your prayers feel like they’re hitting a wall

    This is your heart-hug episode—real talk, Bible truth, and all the grace + grit. If you’re feeling ghosted by God, stuck in your feels, or unsure how to move forward… girl, you’re not alone. Jesus meets us right there.

    🎧 So grab your earbuds and your journal. Let’s talk it out, bestie.

    And psst... SEASON 2 is coming soooo soon and you are NOT ready for how good it's gonna be. 🙌

    👑 Until then—stay bold, stay kind, and stay anchored in truth.

    You are seen. You are chosen. You are SO loved. 💌
