What started as a simple break from social media turned into something way harder than I want to admit.

In this *FRIDAY BONUS* episode, I walk you through my honest, day-by-day experience of stepping away from social media and what it revealed about my habits, my attention, and my heart. From muscle memory scrolling, boredom, and missing “connection,” to realizing just how much time and mental space was being consumed—I share it all without pretending this was easy or instantly freeing.

Two verses kept coming up again and again during this break:

• “Be sober-minded…” (1 Peter 5:8)

• “God gave us a spirit of self-discipline…” (2 Timothy 1:7)

We talk about what it really means to be sober-minded in a world that constantly pulls at our focus, how discipline isn’t punishment but support, and why missing something doesn’t automatically mean it was good for us.

If you’ve ever wondered whether social media is helping you feel connected—or just keeping you distracted—this episode is for you.

5 Reasons to Stop Worrying and Trust God

If worrying were an Olympic sport, moms would be bringing home the gold 🥇 Bills. Kids. The future. That constant “what if…” running in the background of your mind.

In today’s solo episode, we’re diving straight into Matthew 6 where Jesus reminds us to look at the birds — God feeds them, clothes them, and cares for them… so why do we believe He would forget about us?

I’m sharing 5 biblical reasons to stop worrying and start trusting God, even when life feels heavy and uncertain. And let’s be clear — trusting God doesn’t mean being lazy or sitting back doing nothing. The birds still gather food… they just don’t panic while they do it 🕊️

In this episode, we talk about: ✨ Why worry doesn’t actually change anything ✨ How God already knows what you need ✨ What it really means to trust God and still work ✨ How seeking God first brings peace instead of pressure ✨ Remembering God’s faithfulness when fear tries to take over

If your mind has been spinning, your heart feels anxious, or you’ve been carrying more than you were meant to — this episode is for you.

Grab your Bible, take a deep breath, and let’s learn how to trust God without losing our peace 💛

Surprise! 🎉 Today’s episode is a bonus episode because it’s Friday—not Wednesday—and I couldn’t wait to share this with you!

The Holy Spirit has been convicting me to do something… something bold… something a little crazy—and I felt that nudge so strongly that I knew I couldn’t keep it to myself. I want you to do this with me.

In this episode, we’re chatting about obedience, stepping out in faith even when it feels uncomfortable, and what happens when God asks you to move before you feel ready. This is one of those “grab your caffeine, lean in, and let’s get excited together” kind of conversations.

If you’ve been feeling stirred, restless, or gently (or not-so-gently) convicted by the Holy Spirit lately—this one is for you.
