The world can’t stop talking about Charlie Kirk’s assassination—but what about Erika Kirk’s response? At her husband’s funeral, Erika stood with boldness and forgiveness that left millions asking: How could she forgive the man who took her husband’s life?

In this episode, I share why Erika’s faith is not unattainable, but the same kind of strength available to every believer. As a widow myself, I know the peace that only comes from Jesus when tragedy strikes.

We’ll dig into:

• Erika Kirk’s forgiveness and faith after Charlie’s death

• What true biblical grief looks like compared to the world’s despair

• How faith in Jesus provides peace, hope, and strength through loss

• Why forgiveness is central to the Christian walk

• The calling for Christian women, wives, and widows to rise up in their God-given purpose

If you’ve ever wondered how to walk out faith when life falls apart, or how to find peace and hope in grief, this message is for you.

Do you ever feel restless, chaotic, and unsure — even when you’re doing everything ‘right’? You’re reading the books, following the advice, trying the proven systems, and still wondering why obedience to God feels so hard.

In this episode, we get real about why Christian women struggle with obedience, second-guessing, and inner chaos. The truth is: you’re not broken, and you’re not failing — but you may be letting other voices grow louder than God’s. Even well-meaning people, pastors, or mentors can’t replace His direction.

If you’ve ever thought, ‘I can’t tell if this is God or just me,’ or ‘Why do I feel so unsettled when my life looks fine on the outside?’ this conversation is for you. We’ll uncover why advice can’t give you peace, how to recognize when obedience feels heavy, and what it really means to let God’s voice be the loudest.

You don’t need another checklist or quick fix. You need clarity, peace, and confidence that comes from hearing God above the noise. Let’s talk about how to get there.

Have you ever poured time, money, and energy into self-help—only to end up more exhausted, more confused, and further from peace?

That’s exactly where I found myself… until God stopped me in my tracks. In this episode, I’m sharing the aha moment He gave me this morning that exposed how self-help has actually been stealing from me: my peace, my joy, and even my empathy for others.

If you’ve been feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or stuck in the cycle of striving—this conversation is for you. We’ll talk about:

• Why self-help often leaves us jaded and empty instead of whole

• The difference between striving to “fix” yourself vs. surrendering to God

• How I lost my “Pollyanna era” of peace and gratitude—and what I’m doing to get it back

• The false promise of control vs. the rest that comes from Jesus

• Practical Scripture reminders to anchor you when life feels chaotic

Friend, if you’ve been chasing formulas, quick fixes, or hustle culture and still wondering why you feel stuck—this episode is your invitation to let it go. Peace isn’t found in the next program or podcast—it’s found in Him.

I never thought I’d be the one telling my four little girls their daddy wasn’t coming home. Losing my husband in a tragic accident was my worst fear come true — but in the middle of that storm, God gave me peace that didn’t make sense.

In this episode, I share my Christian testimony of loss and how God prepared me to walk through tragedy with hope:

• How to trust God when life falls apart.

• Why surrender led to peace instead of despair.

• The lessons I learned as a Christian wife and mom walking through grief.

• How you can find peace in your own hard season.

If you’re a Christian woman who’s overwhelmed, afraid, or searching for peace in the middle of pain — this story is for you. My prayer is that my testimony reminds you that you’re not alone, and that peace and hope are possible even in the hardest times.

Are you a Christian woman who feels stuck, foggy, or like you just can’t follow through—no matter how many times you start again?

This isn’t about laziness. And it’s definitely not just about willpower.

In this episode, we’re diving into 1 Thessalonians 5 and how “being clearheaded” isn’t just about avoiding alcohol... but about the physical, emotional, and spiritual fog that’s created by the foods we constantly run to for comfort.

The Church rarely talks about this—but it’s a battle that’s keeping thousands of faith-led women stuck in cycles of exhaustion, shame, and missed purpose.

If you’ve ever said:

• “I don’t know why food has such a hold on me.”

• “I keep starting over.”

• “I just want to feel better, but I can’t stick with it.”

…this one is for you.

💬 Let’s talk about why your clarity matters to your calling—and what God is really asking you to do with your health.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do… so why can’t I just do it?”

If you’re stuck in the cycle of starting over, quitting, spiraling, and beating yourself up…

This episode is for you.

I’m talking to the woman who feels like she’s tried everything—clean eating, devotionals, journaling, calorie counting, all of it—and still can’t seem to follow through.

This isn’t about willpower. It’s not about being lazy or undisciplined. And it’s definitely not about needing another meal plan.

This is about the war happening in your mind, your body, and your spirit—especially as a Christian woman who feels called to more but can’t seem to get out of her own way.

If you're tired of emotional eating, starting and stopping, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and feeling like you’re failing God and yourself… You’re not alone.

And you’re not crazy. 🔥

In this raw and unfiltered episode, I open up about how years of people-pleasing, softening my message, and making excuses left me overweight, broke, inconsistent, and spiritually drained. From chasing shiny objects to lying to myself in “inspirational” Facebook posts, I was stuck in a loop of starting over—and never following through.

But that ends now.

I'm diving into the truth about what it really takes to break the cycle of inconsistency, self-betrayal, and comfort addiction. I'm sharing why I'm finally doing 75 Hard, what led me here, and how rediscovering my identity in Christ was the only way I could be ready for this level of discipline.

If you're a Christian woman in your 40s who’s tired of saying you’re ready but keeps falling back into old patterns—this episode is for YOU. This is about more than weight loss. It’s about taking back your voice, trusting yourself again, and becoming the woman God has been calling you to be all along.
