Growing Through It

Some of us feel like we’re “waiting on God”… but if we’re honest, we’re also trying to help Him make sure that dream happens. You’re watching people get the job, the house, the engagement, the marriage, or the very thing you felt like God promised you, while your own life feels slow, unclear, or like it’s not moving at all. So you start thinking maybe you need to do more, say more, fix more, plan...

Be honest… is there something getting in the way of your relationship with God? You love Him. You care about your faith. But deep down, you know if this one thing or maybe even a few things weren’t there… you wouldn’t feel so distracted. I found myself there too. Where little things were quietly creating distance where there could have been intimacy and I didn’t even realize it at first. Because h...

I think a lot of women secretly want their softness back. We want to feel gentle again. We want to feel safe enough to be feminine, to be warm. But somewhere along the way, life taught us that softness isn’t safe. So we built walls. We learned how to protect ourselves. We became “the strong one.” And sometimes that strength was necessary. Sometimes it helped us survive. But if we’re honest… a lot...

Lately I’ve felt a heaviness that’s hard to explain. Are you guys feeling it too? Not just regular sadness, something deeper. Like my eyes have been opened to how much darkness there really is in the world. And if I’m honest, it made me feel overwhelmed… and even angry. The kind of anger that makes you want to call everything out. But somewhere in that, I realized my heart was starting to feel har...

You’ve been avoiding that thing . Maybe it’s one thing. Maybe it’s a few. But deep down… you know exactly what this episode is about. For so long, I believed I had to wait for peace before I moved, before I started something, ended something, or took the next step God was asking of me. I thought peace was the sign. The confirmation. The green light. But Scripture tells a different story. In this e...

A lot of us are “locking in” this year, but what does that actually look like with God? Especially when faith doesn’t feel intense anymore… when you’re still showing up, but you don’t always feel God the way everyone else says they do. Every New Year, we hear messages that fire us up: “reset your faith”, “get back on track”, “go harder this time” but so often they don’t give us the tools to actual...

This episode is for the girl who’s becoming, but still surrounded by the things that shaped her wounds. The one who feels caught in the in-between season, the waiting season, where you’re no longer who you used to be, but you’re still not who you’re praying to become. It’s for the one who loves God, wants to heal, and is trying to grow, yet keeps finding herself triggered by the same family dynami...

We’re back with another honest girl chat episode! We’re talking about all the things we usually keep to ourselves: lust struggles, stubborn crushes, faith burnout, perfectionism, figuring out God’s will, and even how to share the Gospel with family who might not understand your faith.   Lots of real talk about loving Jesus while still figuring life out, walking by the Spirit when your flesh feels...

If you’ve ever felt like you’re not doing enough for God, like no matter how much you pray, serve, or show up, it’s still never enough… this episode is for you. We talk about that quiet pressure so many of us carry as Christians. The pressure to perform, to be “good,” to never fall short. Everyone online makes it look so easy… their routines, their faith, their peace and you start wondering, What...

Everyone gets angry. We all see and go through things that frustrate us or make our blood boil. But, even if you don’t think you have “anger issues,” it’s still easy to let anger lead you into sin. In today’s episode, Drew joins me to talk honestly about our own battles with anger. What it looked like before Christ, how it still shows up now, and what the Bible really says about how to be slow to...

Have you ever felt like following Jesus makes you the “weird one” in the room? Like you’re left out of family gatherings, friend groups, or opportunities because of your faith? I’ve been there too. While reading the Old Testament, I kept coming back to the Levites, the tribe God set apart to serve Him. They didn’t get land like everyone else, but God Himself was their portion. From the outside, it...

Feeling far from God lately? Maybe you’ve been distracted, maybe life feels heavy, or maybe you’ve just quietly drifted without even realizing it. This episode is a reminder that the same God who brought Israel out of Egypt is the same God who’s brought you out of your own Egypt….your heartbreak, your past maybe even just your old self. Forgetting Him is what pulls us further away, but remembering...

“I feel like I’m wasting my life.” If you’ve ever said that to yourself while scrolling, procrastinating, numbing out, or crying in secret, this episode is for you. It’s for the person who cries on their birthday because she feels like another year passed them by. For the dreamer who has a million ideas in their heart but feels too scared to take the first step. For the one who’s tired of feeling...

Fasting. It’s something we’ve all heard about… but I wonder how many of us truly understand it or have actually stepped into it? The beautiful thing is, fasting isn’t just for “super spiritual” people or moments of crisis. It’s for all of us. Jesus said when you fast, not if. Fasting is one of the most powerful ways to draw close to God, hear His voice, and let Him work in your life in ways you di...

This one’s personal. I’ve been asked how I healed from childhood trauma and the truth is, I’m still healing. I haven’t “arrived,” and maybe I never fully will this side of Heaven. But what I’ve learned is this: God doesn’t wait for us to be whole to walk with us. He meets us in the wound. In this episode, I open up about what it looks like to follow Jesus while still bleeding. I talk about the tho...

Have you ever said "yes" when everything in you was saying "no" just because you were scared of disappointing someone, scared of not being liked? Same. And honestly... it’s exhausting. Today, we’re getting real about people-pleasing and how, for so long, we labeled it as "kindness" or "love," when really, it was fear wearing a mask. Fear of rejection. Fear o...

This one’s a little different. It’s not a typical episode… it’s more of a pause. I really felt the Holy Spirit tugging on me to just stop and remember what Jesus did. Not just on Good Friday, but every day — because this story is still changing lives. This episode is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and sit with the love of a God who didn’t stay distant, but stepped into our mess. Who chose th...

Today’s episode is a big sister Q&A — just real, honest girl talk about the things we all wonder but don’t always say out loud. We’re talking about losing friendships in your 20’s, struggling with lust as a Christian girl, trusting God in waiting seasons, dealing with insecurity, making the first move in dating, and even how to start reading your Bible. I’ve missed you guys so much, and it fee...

Would you still listen to this episode if it had nothing to do with you… but everything to do with God? We live in a world that constantly asks, "What can God do for me?" But what if faith wasn’t about what we get, but about who He is? What if we stopped making our relationship with God a transaction and started making it a posture, one of surrender, trust, and devotion?  This episode is...

Have you ever prayed and thought you heard God speaking, but weren’t sure if it was really Him or just your own thoughts? Same.

We’ll dive into the different ways God communicates and what it means when He feels silent. instagram.com/growingthrough.pod

In this episode, we’re getting real about grass is greener syndrome — the constant pursuit of “better” that leaves us feeling stuck and ungrateful.
