  • Emptier Nest, New Chapter: Beau's Heading To College

    Emptier Nest, New Chapter: Beau's Heading To College
    2025/08/27

    Letting go is a process, y’all—and it’s okay to feel all the feels when your kids start spreading their wings. This week, I’m getting real about dropping my older son off at college, my younger son starting driving, and stepping into this new “what now?” stage of life. We talk regrets, lessons learned, and how the (almost) empty nest isn’t the end—it’s a fresh start. Remember, parenting was never about perfection—it’s about showing up, staying real, and modeling what it means to live fully. So let’s step into what’s next—and get excited about it, together.


    In this episode:

    • Dealing with emotions as kids leave home
    • Letting go: personal regrets, lessons learned, and what I would do differently
    • The benefit of open communication with your kids
    • The “what now?” stage for parents
    • Reinventing yourself and embracing new opportunities after the nest is empty


    Here is my favorite quote from this episode:

    “Parenting is more about who you are than what you say and do.” — Amy Goins

  • Life Too Busy? Feeling Burned Out? Do THIS

    Life Too Busy? Feeling Burned Out? Do THIS
    2025/07/16

    Y’all, we are doing way too much—chasing things we were never called to do and wondering why we’re burned out. This week, I’m exploring the difference between being busy and being purposeful, and why doing less can actually bring more peace and lead you to your calling. Trust me—your purpose isn’t gone, and it’s not too embrace your true calling, because it never expires, never dies, and is never truly done.


    In this episode:

    • How to awaken your calling
    • Why busy doesn’t mean productive
    • The power of doing less
    • Taking inventory of what truly fulfills your life
    • The difference between “wanting” and “calling”
    • Practical steps to help you fulfill your calling


    Here is my favorite quote from this episode:

    “You can't do everything, but you can do everything you were called to do.” - Kim Gravel
