The Kristen Bitsko Pod

A griefy and emotional episode as I talk about how I've been feeling with my mom's 2 year anniversary coming up next week. 

From music festivals to grief - giving you guys a quick update on all the new things from this past week. 

A little emotional in this episode as I talk about my recent daily struggles as I continue to trust the Lord through lots of uncertainty and unexpected delays. 

My whole life I believed I wasn't creative. I struggled with coming up with ideas on my own out of fear of how I would be perceived by others. In this episode, I talk about how I have learned to lean into my creative side and what that has looked like. 

A second little intro episode talking about some recent upgrades to the pod and what to expect from the pod. Spoiler alert: lots of authenticity and vulnerability.  I love this space and am so thankful for those of you here.

No episode today - my new equipment came in so I'm taking the week to play around with it and get used to the new set up. Next episode will be out on Monday, June 1st. Talk then :)

Talking about a recent setback with my body image over the last few weeks and how it all really came to a head this past weekend. So so grateful for this space

Piggybacking off the last episode of meditating with the Holy Spirit but now adding the element of using our imagination in prayer. In this episode, we will be using our imaginations to place ourselves in verses 1-3 of Psalm 23 as a way to spend time with the Lord and allowing Him to love on us. Enjoy <3 I am reading the NLT (New Living Translation) in this episode. (00:00) Sharing about my tri...

Another unplanned bonus episode to start the new year :) The topic of this episode is meditation. When we think of meditation, we might think of attempting to clear our minds and reach a higher version of ourselves or worshipping other gods, but that is not what God created it for. Meditation allows us to be in the present moment God gifted us with and bring Him into that moment to spend time with...
