Welcome to our new FILL UR CUP segments! In these episodes, we take time to pause and fill our cup by opening the Word of God together. We’re not Bible scholars—just two girls learning as we go and sharing what God’s been teaching us, in hopes it encourages you to get into Scripture too. In this episode, Maia and Blakely dive into Daniel 6 and the story of Daniel in the lions’ den. They talk about...

In this episode, Maia and Blakely open up about the ways they’ve missed the mark in friendship—starting with gossip and unhealthy communication. They share honestly about times they’ve talked about people instead of to them, avoided hard conversations, or prioritized keeping the peace over making things right. Along the way, they reflect on Scriptures that have challenged and shaped them in this a...

This week, Blakely is joined by our friend Abby Maxson Walsh—owner of Parti Packs (your new favorite online event planner). They’re talking about the beauty of friendship, the struggles that can come with community, and how celebration can be a meaningful way to connect. You’ll hear the story of how Blakely and Abby met, how Girls Who Gather was born, and what it takes to create spaces where women...

This week, we’re following up Part 1 with what’s actually changed since we called ourselves out for being addicted to social media. We’re talking about the boundaries we tried, the ones that stuck, and how we’ve been filling our time with things that actually give life (instead of draining it). We get into protecting your peace, killing comparison, and what it means to  really  guard your heart in...

This week, Maia and Blakely get honest about our generation’s complicated relationship with social media — and how it’s quietly taken over our free time. We’re talking about addiction, distraction, and what it really means to rest in a world that constantly wants our attention. We open up about our own habits, the boundaries we’ve struggled to keep, and how we’ve seen social media desensitize us t...

This week, Maia and Blakely are talking about what it really means to abide in God—through every season, not just the good ones. We’re breaking down what “abide” actually looks like in real life, and how that shifts in different seasons: Winter — waiting, stillness, and when life feels quiet or lifeless Spring — new beginnings, growth, and learning to trust again Summer — fullness, fruit, and stay...

This week, Maia and Blakely get into all things breakups—being broken up with, breaking up with someone else, and all the confusing, emotional, sometimes cringey stuff in between. We’re sharing our own stories (yes, including the mistakes), talking about how to know when it’s time to end things, and what actually helps in the aftermath. We also unpack the big questions: Is it normal to still miss...

In today’s episode, MM closes the Psalm 23 series with the final line: “And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” David’s not just talking about a moment—he’s talking about a forever . A permanent place with God. A life lived under His care, both now and for eternity. This episode is an invitation: Will you be a guest… or a resident? The Lord has made a way for you to dwell with Him, fo...

In today’s episode, MM reflects on the final line of Psalm 23: “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.” After recounting how God has led, protected, and provided, David ends with confidence—God’s goodness and mercy are not temporary. They’re lifelong companions. Even in hardship, David knew who he was walking with. This episode is a reminder that God’s kindness and love...

In today’s episode, Blakely reflects on what it means to say, “My cup overflows.” David isn’t just saying that God provides—he’s saying God provides more than enough. The Lord doesn’t stop at “just enough to get by.” He pours out until our lives spill over with abundance. But what does that really look like? And how do we experience it? In this episode, Blakely shares her own story of going from s...

In today’s episode, MM unpacks the meaning behind the phrase: “You anoint my head with oil.” Anointing isn’t reserved for pastors, leaders, or the “super spiritual.” It’s for every believer. If you’ve accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior, you are anointed. But what does that really mean? In this episode, MM shares how anointing is a gift from God—evidence of the Holy Spirit in your life—and how it’s...

In today’s episode, MM explores the verse in Psalm 23: “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” What does it mean that God sets a table for us while our enemies are still around? And what kind of table is it, really? This episode is for anyone who feels like they have to “clean up” before they can meet with God—or anyone walking through anxiety, shame, or struggle. MM unpacks...

In today’s episode, MM unpacks one of the most surprising lines in Psalm 23: “Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” These tools of a shepherd don’t look comforting at first glance—until you understand what they represent. The rod symbolizes God fighting for you. The staff shows His care to guide, correct, and reroute you when you're headed off path. This episode is for anyone who feels li...

In this episode, we continue our 14-day journey through Psalm 23 with one of the most intimate turns in the entire passage: “I will fear no evil, for you are with me.” Blakely reflects on the shift in David’s voice—from talking about God to talking to Him. Why the change from “He” to “You”? Because something happens when you walk through the valley with God. There’s a deeper intimacy that can only...

In this episode, we continue our 14-day journey through Psalm 23 with one of the most powerful and hope-filled verses in all of Scripture: “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death...” MM reflects on what it means that, because of Jesus, death is no longer something to fear — it’s just a  shadow.  Through the cross and the resurrection, Christ defeated death, and now we get to...

In this episode, Blakely continues our 14-day devotional journey through Psalm 23 by leaning into the verse:  “For His name’s sake.” What does it really mean that God leads us in righteousness for  His  name? Blakely unpacks how our lives can become a reflection of who He is — not because we have it all together, but because He’s the one leading. This episode is an invitation to consider how other...

In this episode, Maia continues our 14-day devotional journey through Psalm 23. We’re leaning into one of the most beautiful and humbling truths in Scripture: “He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.” What if walking in righteousness isn’t about striving... but about resting first? Maia shares her personal journey of realizing that before we’re led on the path of righteousness,...

In this episode, Blakely continues our 14-day devotional journey through Psalm 23. Today’s focus: “He restores my soul.” What does real restoration look like, and where do we actually find it? Blakely shares a story from a mission trip to Bangladesh and reflects on how true healing—soul-deep healing—doesn’t come from quick fixes, self-reliance, or even help from others, but through the care of our...

In this episode, Blakely continues our 14-day devotional journey through Psalm 23. We’re diving into one of the most comforting (and kind of challenging) lines: “He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside still waters.” What does real rest even look like? And why does it sometimes feel so hard to actually receive it? Blakely shares how, just like sheep, we often don’t know what we...

In this episode, Blakely continues our 11-day devotional journey through Psalm 23, focusing on what it means to surrender our desires to the Shepherd who knows exactly what we need—and when we need it. This reflection invites us to release the pressure to strive or force outcomes, and instead rest in the truth that the God who created us will give us what we were made for. While He sees the desire...

In this episode, Maia kicks off our 11-day devotional journey through Psalm 23, starting with the simple yet powerful phrase: “The Lord is my Shepherd.” Unpacking what it means for God to call Himself a shepherd—a deeply relational, intentional, and caring role.

In this episode, Blakely and Maia get real about something most of us don’t like to admit—what happens when we’re just not feeling it with God. Whether you’re feeling spiritually dry, distant from God, or straight-up unmotivated to open your Bible, this conversation is for you. They unpack that uncomfortable feeling of not wanting to pursue God, and ask the deeper questions: Is this a season of qu...

In this episode, Blakely and Maia share their very different journeys to Jesus—one coming to faith in 8th grade, and the other encountering God during a wild college season. Both reveal how God met them where they were and transformed their lives. They openly discuss the shame and guilt that often hold us back from sharing our testimonies. Whether you feel your story is “too ordinary” or “too mess...

In this honest episode, we sit down with Blakely to hear how God met her in the middle of chasing money, image, and status—and invited her into something deeper. She shares about attending a youth camp she didn’t even want to go to (thanks to some crushes, yes plural LOL), and how that unexpected moment became the turning point for her walk with God. Since then, she's learned what it means to...

In this honest and personal episode, Maia returns to the podcast after taking a much-needed break. She shares where she’s been, what led her to step away, and the refining journey God has taken her through in the quiet. We talk about the beauty of stillness, the discomfort of waiting, and how God often works behind the scenes in our lives. Maia opens up about what He’s been teaching her about surr...
