    Episode 89: Silence Doesn’t Mean Absence - When You Can’t Find What You’re Looking For
    Nov 20 2025
    Don’t worry, this isn’t about hunting! 🤪We’re just going to be talking about life. I know that you can be doing everything right—praying, working, providing, showing up again and again (or in my case, hiking miles and miles (and miles)), and still not find what you’re looking for. When that’s the case, it’s hard to want to keep trying. So what do you do when you’re in a season when nothing you planned for is happening? Take a listen and find out! . . . . .

    Episode 88: The Algorithm Of Fear - How We’re Being Played By Panic
    Nov 13 2025
    We’re leaning into the algorithm of fear and learning how to break it! I define what the algorithm of fear is, give you some examples of how you might be getting played, and then share really practical ways to break the fear feed.

  • Episode 87: How To Heal Your Heart Instead Of Letting Rage Destroy You With Kirsten Powers

    Episode 87: How To Heal Your Heart Instead Of Letting Rage Destroy You With Kirsten Powers
    Nov 6 2025
    Bipartisan political analyst Kirsten Powers is sharing her take on how we can remain true to ourselves while also believing for the good of others. She realized that the rage that was filling her heart in the midst of delivering news was absolutely destroying her. Take a listen to hear what she did to find healing. You may have heard this conversation before, and that’s because I’ve been in South Africa this week and the episode I thought I recorded is nowhere to be found. 🙃 But this conversation with Kirsten is worth listening to again because it’s still (unfortunately) so relevant for us today. . . . . .

    This episode is all about friendship—inspired by one of the best talks I’ve ever heard on friendship. Even if you have good friends, what I share today will help you better those friendships. And if you feel like you don’t have good friends, let me encourage you by saying that you’re not alone. As a society, we are the most connected and yet the loneliest we’ve ever been. But there’s hope! So here are some thoughts on how to build healthy friendships, at any stage of life! . . . . .

  • Episode 85: We Lost The Plot

    Episode 85: We Lost The Plot
    Oct 23 2025
    We've lost the plot. I swear my entire social media feed right now is just Christians fighting over Taylor Swift and Halloween. And today I'm just processing through it. Now, let me be clear and say that I lose the plot all the time. We all do. But I'm just really discouraged by how much discourse is dedicated to trivial pursuits rather than Gospel truths. It just seems like we're more interested in engaging with rage-baits online than we are reaching out to a friend we know is struggling. But I think there's hope for change!

    Episode 84: Feeling Unseen And Experiencing Grief With My Mom Carmen Whittaker
    Oct 16 2025
    This week we’re going in deep with my mom. If you haven’t listened to last week’s episode, we have a bit of a lighter conversation about crochet. But this is a continuation of that conversation, and it’s packed full of my mom’s thoughts on and experiences with grief, caring for widows and the elderly, and feeling unseen. . . . . .

    Episode 83: Crocheting With My Mom (And So Much More)
    Oct 9 2025
    My mom is on the podcast today!! She’s been crocheting these little animals lately. So I thought we’d talk about crocheting, which inevitably turned into so much more. I have a challenge for you: Find something that brings you joy that doesn’t involve a screen. And then notice what comes up (and maybe even heals) inside of you when you do that thing. . . . . .

    Episode 82: Outrage Machines, Selective Outrage, And Hypocrisy
    Oct 2 2025
    We’re talking about hypocrisy. And here’s the plot twist: we’re not talking about hypocrisy that we see in other people, we’re talking about the hypocrisy that we see in ourselves. Every human being needs to be able to say: I have selective outrage. Which simply means we turn our outrage on and off depending on which “tribe” was injured. Here’s how we can move forward… . . . . . Order your copy of my latest book Reconnected HERE: ReconnectedBook.com Let’s keep in touch!
