• Living What We Preach: Why We’re Pausing the Podcast
    Oct 2 2024

    Hey friends!

    This is a bittersweet episode. Amy and I have spent a lot of time talking about what's going on in our lives recently and have made the choice to hit pause on this podcast. It would feel hypocritical of us to have a podcast with "intentional" in the title if we weren't willing to let our actions line up with the words we continually share with others.

    This isn't "goodbye" just a "see you later". Thanks for joining us on this journey and listening to our ramblings along the way! We can't want to come back and keep having conversations that encourage, challenge, and inspire others to pursue a life of intentionality.

    Cheers,

    AJ & Amy

  • Church Hunting After Marriage: Building a Strong Spiritual Foundation Together
    Sep 18 2024

    Welcome back, friends!

    Growing up we often go with the flow on where our parents take us to church. But as you get older, move cities, or even when you get married, it can often be challenging to find a new church. This week we're talking about what it looks like to find a new church home that is healthy, challenging, and a good community support system.

    We'll also be talking about what it looks like to incorporate God into your new marriage and how spouses can love and support each other through their own relationships with Jesus.

    Thanks for joining in, we'll see you again in a couple weeks!

    Cheers,

    AJ & Amy

  • Love vs. Lust: The Slow Burn Approach to Lasting Relationships
    Sep 4 2024

    Heyo!

    Things get spicy on this week's episode as we talk about love vs lust, what it looks like to let a relationship be a "slow burn" instead of throwing caution to the wind, and how intimacy isn't just physical and the different levels of intimacy that you should gradually be progressing through as the seriousness of your relationship increases.

    Cheers,

    AJ & Amy

  • Are You Focusing On The WRONG Things Leading Up To Your Wedding?
    Aug 21 2024

    Hey friends!

    Couples often spend a ridiculous amount of hours and money planning for their wedding day! Now don't get us wrong, we love a gorgeous ceremony and rocking reception just as much as everyone else - but are we focusing on the wrong things leading up to the wedding?


    When it comes to planning a great party for one day versus laying a solid foundation for the marriage to your best friend for the rest of your life, it can be easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of wedding planning. We promise you, if you invest a fraction of the time and money spent on planning the "Pinterest perfect" wedding of your dreams and put that into focusing on premarital counseling, "learning the language" of your future spouse, and having intentional conversations about your future - your future self will thank you.


    The party will be fun, but the strength of your foundation is far more valuable.


    Cheers,

    AJ & Amy


    P.S. - Ask your spouse or someone close to you - what do you think is holding me back from my success? Send us a DM on Instagram, we would love to hear what y'all talked about!

  • Learning How to Honor Your Parents As An Adult
    Aug 7 2024

    Hey Everyone!

    As we grow up, many people often face an interesting transition season - the shift from being a child that takes instruction from parents to an adult with a relationship with parents who's role become more of a guide. Sometimes in that transition, it can be difficult to find the balance of continuing to honor parents while maintaining boundaries.


    The primary focus of this season of transition to adulthood should be aimed at maintaining a healthy relationship rather than proving you're "right."


    Thanks for joining us on this weeks episode, we'll see you in a couple weeks!


    Cheers,

    AJ & Amy

  • Empowering Domestic Abuse Survivors with Donavan Grant, MACC, LCMHC
    Jul 24 2024

    Hey friends!

    We very excited to share this episode with you because we have our very first guest joining the podcast! AJ's uncle, Donavan Grant, has been a licensed clinical mental health counselor for over 20 years and specializes in working with the survivors, and offenders, of domestic violence.

    He'll be talking with us about how to recognize it in relationships, why people will sometimes stay in relationships with their abuser, ways the Church hasn't always handled domestic violence situations well, how support those in an abusive relationship, and resources available to those looking for a way out.

    We know this is a long one, but we think it's really beneficial to have open conversations like this as the statistics show domestic violence in relationships has grown to be more and more common.

    Be sure to check the links below for the resources mentioned in this episode. If you, or somebody you know, is in an abusive relationship, remember - You're not alone. Everyone is worthy of being safe and loved well.

    Cheers,

    AJ & Amy

  • Navigating Family Relationships After You’re Married
    Jun 26 2024

    Hi friends!

    There are a lot of things that change when you get married like getting used to living with someone and their daily habits (and icks), managing finances together, and making plans for your future together. But getting married isn't just two becoming one, all of a sudden now there are two sets of families that you each have to learn as well.


    You not only have to learn life with your spouse, but also you learn life with a new family. What they like doing for holidays, their values and traditions, and setting boundaries with nosey or overbearing family members.


    We talk through ALL of this and more on this episode and can't wait for you to listen.


    Cheers,

    AJ & Amy
