Hey Jess

Anyone ever feel like getting some "rest" isn't cutting it? You can't get enough, or somehow it just doesn't seem to be the answer? That's because sometimes that's not ALL we really need! Let's talk about why sometimes rest just isn't enough. In this Episode: Between Sundays with the Chandlers https://open.spotify.com/episode/5l849xv468eNHzqjLzvgeG?si=ZmyI2oKU...

It's almost spring time, and that means alot of us are headed to the ballpark! Whether you're gearing up for ball season or gearing up to get up at all today, I want to encourage you that you've got this! So let's talk about it!

Have you ever felt this way when you are faced with hard decisions or tough situations? Today we are talking about that familiar place we find ourselves time and time again: when we don't have the answers! Let's talk about it!

We know that we all have our own loads to carry and our own versions of "hard." So let's talk about what happens when we compare our "hard." Or better yet, let's just stop doing that altogether and, instead, help each other through it. You are stronger than you know!

Help me welcome my very first guest: my sister Kayla! We chat about all the things, but finally settle in to discuss waiting well, flourishing where you're planted, and holding on to hope in the meantime. Let's talk about it!

In this lighthearted episode, we explore some lessons I've learned from my pets...and you might be surprised at the takeaways. We can find lessons in life all around us if we look. You might also be motivated to start your own zoo, so be warned! (But I doubt it...)

Let's talk about practices and reflections for the new year. Join us as we discuss the idea of finding a word for your year, as well as other ideas for ways to kick off 2026 with intentionality and purpose. Let's do this!

Happy New Year! Welcome to 2026!

As we wrap up our Holiday Series, let's reflect on the beautiful craziness of Christmas.

Let's talk about Christmas movies today! I'm going to share my faves and few I refuse to put in this category...let's hope it's not divisive! If you're busy wrapping presents, I'm here to keep you company today!

The holiday season is full of joy, love, and laughter, so why does it also feel like a time for grief to fight for its place under the twinkly lights? There are many times in life where grief impacts our joy and others where it can learn to share it. So let's talk about ways we might be carrying it this season and hopefully help it settle in ALONGSIDE the joy.

Traditions. What are they and why do I have to stick to them? Let's talk about the purpose of traditions and how to use them to cultivate the holiday heritage we desire. Plus, I'm going to share some of my own easy-peasy Christmas traditions to help get your creative balls rolling and, hopefully, inspire you to replace the hustle and bustle this season with peace and joy! Let's talk ab...

As the holidays continue, we can feel pressure to do all the things! But spoiler alert: you can't do it all! Let's talk about how to protect our time in order to truly enjoy the holidays without become the guarded Christmas grinch!

It's that time of year! Let's take time to get ready for the holidays, and let me encourage you to carve out time for what matters most. And while we're at it, let's figure out how we know what that is in the first place!

These changing temps have me thinking about change...but also fall vibes and pumpkins so get ready to weigh in.

No one said honesty was easy. And somehow, the older we get, lines get crossed between hurting feelings and telling the truth. But if honesty leads to deeper friendships and more authentic relationships, why does it feel scary to be honest, and equally scary to welcome honesty from others? Let's talk about it...

We usually think of spring as a time for a fresh start, but for some reason this fall I'm feeling the urge to start some new things. But why is getting started so difficult sometimes? Let's talk about it.

What can we find encouraging about hitting a milestone birthday? I have some thoughts...

Sometimes adulting is embracing our everyday, mundane expectations. But what if we could remember that if we have to do something every day, it probably matters...

Join me today for an important tip in general, but a back to school strategy you may not hear anywhere else!

Boundaries...why are they so hard? Why do I feel like there's no rulebook for them? How do I get good at it? We've all asked these questions and more. No matter what season you find yourself in, chances are healthy boundaries need to be a part of your life. So let's talk about it!

Today we are talking about a sneaky emotion: disappointment. We feel it from small things like a change in plans, to big life things like loss and hurt. But I want to offer you some encouragement today in that we don't have to carry it alone. Come on, let's talk about it!

Let's introduce ourselves and talk about why this podcast is here! And PS- I think there are a few things you need to hear today...
