hey homegirlsss. God started reminded me that His love for me is so much bigger than my love for Him. that sounds simple, but it’s something that changed the way i see everything.

so many of us have grown up in church believing we have to prove our love for God through effort. through serving, striving, and trying to do everything “right.” but what if the gospel was never about how much you love God, and instead about how deeply He loves you?

💭 in this episode, we talk about:

• why God’s love for you matters more than your love for Him
• the danger of living from self-righteousness and striving
• how we misinterpret holiness without understanding love

📖 scriptures mentioned:

• romans 12:2 — be transformed by the renewing of your mind
• galatians 2:21 — if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing
• psalm 103:8 — the Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love
• john 10:10 — i came that they may have life, and have it abundantly

⏱ chapter markers:
00:00:29 – a hotel with no windows
03:00 – when faith starts to feel like performance
06:30 – God’s love vs our love
10:00 – the trap of self-righteousness
13:00 – living by the spirit, not by willpower
17:00 – God can be holy and still be Father
22:00 – stop striving, start resting
26:00 – final encouragement: let the Father love you

hey homegirls, it’s been a while 🥹

today’s episode is just a bit of a catch up because it's been a HOT minute.

but it's also a reminder that when life feels heavy, God is still working. the past few months have been ghettoooo. burnout, busyness, and just feeling pulled in every direction. but through it all, God’s been teaching me about purpose, patience, and obedience in the midst of chaos.

💭 in this episode, we talk about:

• feeling like your passion has slipped away
• navigating burnout and spiritual fatigue
• trusting God when your calling feels impossible
• balancing work, faith, and personal purpose
• remembering that consistency doesn’t equal calling
• how God can still use you in the weird/ uncertain seasons

📖 scriptures mentioned:

• colossians 3:2 – set your minds on things above, not on earthly things
• ephesians 2:10 –for we are God’s handiwork, created in christ jesus to do good works
• esther 4:14 – you were called for such a time as this
• john 10:10 – i came that they may have life, and have it abundantly

⏱ chapter markers:
00:00 – where i’ve been
02:00 – burnout
05:30 – spiritual warfare
07:00 – inconsistency
10:00 – perfectionism
12:30 – responsibility
14:00 – your calling is still valid
15:30 – God’s timing
18:00 – there’s still space for your voice
21:00 – update!

hey homegirlssss. i have been AWOL but God is faithful.

in today’s episode, i wanted to talk about the chrsitians who are overwhelmed, tired, maybe sometimes inconsistent with the word and feeling guilty.

... basically, all of us at some point.

i’ve been in a season where everything has felt CRAZY (hence the absence): wedding planning, work, travelling… and somewhere in the middle of all of that, my time with God started to look different.

i used to feel like i needed to "get back" to how i used to be with God - hours in the Word, long study sessions, structured prayer. but lately, God’s just been whispering, “start somewhere.”

in this episode we talk about:
✨ the guilt we carry when our quiet time doesn’t look the same
✨ how God meets us in the busyness
✨ how starting small is still starting

scriptures mentioned:
psalm 51:17 — “my sacrifice, o God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.”
psalm 139:8 — “if i make my bed in sheol, you are there.”
matthew 11:28 — “come to me, all who are weary…”
psalm 1 — meditate on His Word day and night
1 thessalonians 5:17 — pray without ceasing

⏱ chapters:
00:00 – life update: london, wedding planning & being tired
01:50 – guilt from not “doing enough” for God
03:15 – remembering early days of faith
05:10 – God wants you, not performance
06:40 – reverence & friendship with Jesus
08:30 – psalm 51: a broken heart, not a perfect plan
10:00 – back to basics: verse of the day & devotionals
12:20 – spontaneous prayers & friendship with God
14:50 – why a 5-minute convo with God is still holy
16:10 – comparing God-time to fiancé-time
17:30 – faith in the small beginnings
18:40 – returning to the foundation: Jesus
19:30 – don't underestimate the "simple" truths
