 Welcome to a space where honest conversations meet hilarious moments. Join us as we navigate this “oldish” season of life with grace, grit, and a whole lot of laughter. From parenting adult kids to processing faith, marriage, health, and everything in between—we’re showing up as we are, trusting God through it all, and finding reasons to laugh (even when life feels hard). If you’ve ever felt a little overwhelmed, a little older, and a little unsure—but still full of faith—this podcast is for you.Copyright That's Why We're Friends Christianity Hygiene & Healthy Living Relationships Social Sciences Spirituality

  • The One Where God is With Us

    The One Where God is With Us
    Dec 23 2025
    Thanks for joining us for this episode of That’s Why We’re Friends.

    This podcast is created for women in the oldish season of life, where we get real & vulnerable about all things faith, family, our bodies, health & everything in between.

    If you’re looking for a space to laugh & cry about the real stuff, this is it!

    This week’s episode is a short and sweet one as we head into Christmas! We chat about last-minute gift-wrap emergencies, whether we’re labelers or non-labelers, and if wrapping paper or gift bags reign supreme. 🎁😂 Then we turn our focus to the heart of Christmas — Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us — and talk about the joy and hope He brings. We also share whether we stick to traditional Christmas foods or mix it up each year. It’s a simple, warm conversation to usher in Christmas week.

    If you’re looking for a space to laugh & cry about the real stuff, this is it!

    In this episode, we slow down and talk about the awe and wonder of Christmas — the kind that pulls our attention back to Jesus and recenters our hearts in a season that can get loud and hurried. We share how we’re practicing rest, resisting the holiday hustle, and making intentional space to experience the beauty of Emmanuel, God with us. It’s a simple, peaceful conversation to help you breathe a little deeper this Christmas.

    This week’s episode is extra special because our husbands — Paul and Jeff — joined us on the show! 🎙 We asked them about their thoughts and feelings on our podcast, their perspectives on marriage and friendship, and of course their favorite Christmas memories. They may or may not have tried to take over the podcast a few times… but we managed to keep things (mostly) under control. It’s honest, sweet, a little chaotic, and full of Christmas nostalgia.
