Hey y’all, welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting.

In this Season 1 finale, we’re talking about something that feels especially important in this season of life—staying present.

Between end-of-school events, birthdays, tee ball, vacation Bible school, bringing Pearl home, and all the chaos of what many parents jokingly call “Maycember,” life has felt very full lately. And in the middle of all of it, I’ve been reminded how easy it is to become so focused on managing life that we forget to actually live it.

In this episode, I’m sharing why I’ve decided to take a short break from the podcast after this week, the importance of slowing down and making memories with our families, and the reminder that not every season is meant to be rushed through.

We reflect on Psalm 90:12 and Ecclesiastes 3:1 as encouragement to be intentional with the time God has given us and to recognize the beauty in each season—even the busy ones.

I also just want to say thank you.

Thank you for listening, for sharing this space with me, and for allowing me to hear pieces of your stories along the way. One of the most meaningful parts of creating Holy Ground Parenting has been realizing how many parents are carrying similar struggles, hopes, fears, and victories—and how powerful it is when we remind each other that we’re not alone.

This community has meant more to me than I can fully put into words, and I’m so grateful for every message, comment, prayer, and story that’s been shared over the course of this first season.

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed, or like life is moving too fast, I hope this episode encourages you to pause, breathe, and focus on what matters most.

And while the podcast may be taking a short break, the Holy Ground Parenting Facebook group will remain open so we can continue encouraging one another along the way.

Thank you for being part of Season 1 of Holy Ground Parenting. I’m so grateful you’re here.

Hey y’all, welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting.

This week’s episode is a special one—as my husband Stephen and I celebrate 10 years of marriage, I’ve been reflecting on what it really looks like to stay connected through the ups and downs of special needs parenting.

Marriage is a journey in itself, but when you add in the stress, exhaustion, and unpredictability that can come with raising a child with extra needs, it can stretch your relationship in ways you didn’t expect.

In this episode, I’m sharing honestly about what that has looked like for us—the hard seasons, the growth, and the ways we’ve had to learn to lean on God and on each other. Our scriptures this week are Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 and Colossians 3:13.

We talk about how we’re not the same people we were 10 years ago, and how in many ways, we’ve grown up together through every season life has brought our way.

If you’re in a season where your marriage feels strained, tired, or just different than it used to be, I hope this episode encourages you.

Because even in the hard seasons, God is still at work—strengthening, refining, and holding it all together.

God doesn't call us to be perfect, He just wants us to keep showing up. You are not alone in this.

Hey y’all, welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting.

This episode is a special one—and an honest one.

Over the past couple of weeks, our family traveled to training to meet Evie’s autism service dog, Pearl. It’s something we prayed for, hoped for, and waited on for a long time. But when the moment finally came… it didn’t look the way I expected.

Evie’s first reaction to Pearl was fear, not excitement. The first several days of training were hard as both Evie and Pearl adjusted—new environment, new routines, and a lot of big emotions. There were moments of discouragement where I wondered if things would ever click.

But slowly, over time, something began to shift.

By the end of our time there, Evie started to feel more comfortable—and on our last night, after everything we had walked through, Pearl climbed into bed with her… and they slept side by side all night.

In this episode, I’m sharing the full story—the hard, the unexpected, and the beautiful reminder that sometimes answered prayers don’t come instantly… they’re built over time.

If you’re in a season where something isn’t going the way you hoped, I pray this episode encourages you to trust that God is still working in the process.

Because sometimes the most meaningful things in life don’t happen all at once—they grow, little by little.
