Munch and Mingle

Text Me Here!!! Early upload this week! This week's talk was a short one, but it was packed with so much goodness that I was just so excited to share it! Also, last night, before I came to record, I had another wild dream, could mean nothing or something, but if anything, it proved to help this week's talk hit a little more impactful, because I realized I was doing the very thing we are...

Text Me Here!!! Our first double talk episode this season and what a pair we got. I was reminded this week just how important it is to have your own testimony of Christ, because there will come moments where it is just you and a choice in front of you. And whatever that choice be, to have a testimony to keep you steady will be so crucial. Now what things can help us build and strengthen our testim...

Text Me Here!!! Week 2 comes in with a BANG! I could have called this episode 'Our much Needed Peptalk" with all the motivational one-liners! I once again think this is a talk where there isn’t 1 right answer but instead it is left up for you as the listener to decide what it is about. So grateful for people like Sister Runia, because as you will hear, she has every right in her life to...

Text Me Here!!! Week 1 is in the books! And what a way to start it off than by Elder Gong's talk? This is definitely a talk you are going to want to work through a few times this week, because there are so many avenues you can go down with it. Today I specifically hit on the thought of carrying His holy house back into ours and to help do that I enlisted the help of one Richard Rife, a temple...

Text Me Here!!! Howdy, Hey Hello to a new season and a new General Conference! I've missed you all, thank you for being patient with me as we get adjusted to having baby #4 home! It's been great and I'm so excited to get back onto the pod and go through these incredible talks! Be sure to message me and let me know what talks stuck out to you, as we go through each one I cannot wait...

Text Me Here!!! Probably one of the shortest episodes you'll hear from me this month, but everything just kind of hit the fan this weekend, anyone else have those or currently in that right now? :D The two talks we go over today though really are acting as a balm for my soul though, and I couldn't think of any better way to explain that, then to just go over the exact words from their mo...

Text Me Here!!! If you are needing the reminder that you are loved and loved specifically by Jesus Christ, this episode is for you! I dive into Elder Larreal's and Elder Rowe's conference talks, and I'm happy to say, I've known Jesus Christ loves me, but after going through these talks, He REALLY loves me! And He REALLY loves you too! I'm loving how all these talks are coi...

Text Me Here!!! We are back with our double talks episode, which means get ready for a double punch of the Spirit! And this one, is a good one! I'm shocked by how these talks can coincide so well together, but especially these two and from a rock house pair nonetheless. I was reminded by going through these talks how some times in our trials of faith, we will have the strength to move forward...

Text Me Here!!! So happy to be back in the same week with another episode! Pray for me as we try to crank as many as we can out before baby girl gets here! I have faith that we can do it! This was such a fascinating talk to go through and study about, espeically being able to go deeper into truly what a vine is and it's purpose it serves, it doesn't surprise me now how much a vine is con...

Text Me Here!!! We've got a little bit different kind of an episode this week, I'm on a mission to get through this entire General Conference before Baby gets here, and to do that the only way I can see is by doubling up our talks for every episode. It might take a little more getting used to on my part, because the talks start to blend together, but then I also think, Doubling up on the...

Text Me Here!!! I apologize again for coming in a little late this week. But you won't want to miss this episode, especially the little treat at the end! Also forgive me for never being able to say Elder Causse's name correctly on this episode! I love this talk as it really encourages us to reach beyond our normal capacity and mental bandwith, to love more, esepcially to love those with...

Text Me Here!!! I apologize for the late episode this week, but I had to make sure we got this episode out this, as our conference talk spoke volumes to Britton and I, especially after our past two weeks of events. I hope that no matter where you are in life, at the beginning, middle or end of a hard time, that you will know, Jesus Christ is the Relief, not the burden of the trial. I'm so gra...

Text Me Here!!! I apologize y'all this talk unpacked so much in my brain, and yet I still feel like I don't have the adequate words to express it, because it's almost still an ongoing process. However, I do believe we are able to find the main meat of this talk that Elder Wu is trying to get across. I hope and pray you are having a good week and above all that you are able to give a...

Text Me Here!!! I was just telling Britton, "if someone were to ask me what has been my most favorite talk from Conference, it would be like being asked, 'who is your favorite child?' I honestly couldn't pick, because I love them all!" And that's exactly how I feel about going through this week's talk, it's like each talk is exactly something I needed to hea...

Text Me Here!!! Welcome to the Saturday Afternoon Session of Conference. Elder Stevenson truly comes out with a bang, when I originally heard his talk, I loved hearing the stats about this cool airport in Japan who never loses a luggage. However, when I went over the talk again this week, I was hit with the overhwlmeing truth of the love that Our Heavenly Father has for each and every one of us, H...

Text Me Here!!! Hello to a new week and a new conference talk! This talk marks the end of our Saturday Morning Session recap! And what a great talk and also a great man. Every time I hear a new talk from President Eyring, my heart grows more for him.  This talk he goes into the power of prayer and also reminding us to pray in perhaps a closet of some sort. Which if you've been here long, you...

Text Me Here!!! What a great week and a great talk! I'm so excited for you guys to go through this one, I know I saw that every week, but they genuinely are so great! This week we get to go through Elder Becerra's talk, and this topic I find is a love/hate topic, however, I truly believe after going through this talk, if you haven't already, you really can find a way to love this po...

Text Me Here!!! Can you believe we are on the 5th talk of Conference? We are cruising! I'm actually really intrigued by today's speaker and his talk, it is much shorter than I feel the other ones are, and it actually feels like a 'Thoughts in my Head' episode, which we all know I love. I'm excited for you to listen and hear what you pull out of this talk! Make sure to let...

Text Me Here!!! So excited to get into this weeks talk from Elder Bednar.  I hope I not the only one who made this connection between enduring and charity, but if so, I'm glad I'm hearing it now rather than later. I want to reiterate again, when it comes to truly setting boundaries for ourselves and with others, before you listen to a TikTok video advocating for your self care, make sure...

Text Me Here!!! Wow! What an incredible week! It's like all the thoughts, questions and ideas all collided in my head at once, which if you've been here for a while you know that means it is time for a Thoughts in My Head Episode! + a Conference Talk! The best combo! I really didn't know what to expect from Elder Gilbert's talk, but I really am seeing every week the power of go...

Text Me Here!!! I won't lie, when I saw the topic this week was going to be on ministering, I wanted to go and hide under my blanket. It was another thing I'd have to add to my "get better at doing this, let alone at all" list! Anyone else have one of those? Just me? I apologize for a little bit of my rambling thoughts, but I hope the main point I do get across is... Ministerin...

Text Me Here!!! Such a great talk to start off conference! Also can we just agree how much joy and laughter Elder Kearon has brought into the church body?  Today we go over Elder Kearon's conference address: About His Business. I'll be honest, I worried when I realized it was a talk about accepting callings, as that can come with so many mixed feelings, but who better to tackle this topi...

Text Me Here!!! Very excited to say we made it back to the Podcast, and how couldn't we after such an incredible Conference Weekend. I want to hear your thoughts and impressions from the weekend, so make sure to email me or text me at the links in this description box! Powerful. Insightful. Right on the mark. All the things I could use to describe this weekend. And what I can't wait even...

Text Me Here!!! Where in the world has McKenna been? Home, she's been home :D I've missed the podcast, but I promise there's a good reason I've been so silent, I'm wondering if any of you have guessed why? :D With this new arrangement, I've had to come to some hard truths, that might make my year a little bit different than I had planned... But yet, it also feels like...

Text Me Here!!! Hello!!! Welcome into 2026, I've got a great talk to go over with you, and surprisngly, a lot of ideas for New Years Goals if you're needing any! This talk actually opened up for me more as I went in to record, so I apologize for being a little all over the place but I hope the main message still stands. I probably will never be looking at altars the same way again, and t...
