Working on Amazing

Waiting on God can feel confusing, frustrating, and even discouraging—especially when you’ve been praying for a long time and nothing seems to change. In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to “wait on the Lord” from a biblical perspective—and how to hold onto hope when you feel weary in the waiting.

Have you ever exhausted yourself trying to get response, realization or even sympathy out of someone… only to feel hurt, frustrated, or rejected in the end? In this episode, we’re talking about a simple but powerful mindset shift: Let them. Let them misunderstand you. Let them walk away. Let them make their choices. And then— you choose how you respond. For women starting over in midlife, learning...

When life changes suddenly — through divorce, loss, job transition, or another unexpected shift — one of the quietest but most jarring changes is time. There are evenings that feel too long. Weekends that feel empty. Silence where there used to be conversation. Rebuilding your life isn’t just about healing emotionally or getting financially stable — it’s also about being intentional with your time...

When life changes in an instant — divorce, death, betrayal, job loss, diagnosis — we go into survival mode. We adapt.  We cope.  We shrink.  We harden.  We become who we need to be to make it through. But somewhere along the way… we forget who we are. In this episode, we talk about the healing power of remembering yourself — and becoming truly proud of who you are again. Not a polished version. No...

In today’s culture, “rest” often looks like collapsing on the couch with your phone or turning on Netflix after a long day. And while those things aren’t inherently bad… they aren’t always truly restorative. If you’re in a season of change — grieving, rebuilding, starting over — you may be deeply tired. But scrolling for two hours doesn’t necessarily leave you feeling renewed. It often leaves you...

Exploring how gut health impacts every aspect of your physical and mental well-being. And better yet, how to make a positive improvements without drastic changes. Your gut microbiome is made up of trillions of microbes — bacteria, fungi, yeast, and more — primarily in your intestines. These tiny organisms help break down food, absorb nutrients, support immunity, and communicate with your brain. Th...

 In this episode, we explore the incredible power of prayer—both spiritually and scientifically. For centuries, people of faith have believed that prayer changes things. Now, modern science is beginning to show that prayer and meditation actually change us —our brains, our nervous systems, and even how our bodies respond to stress. If you’re walking through a season of starting over—after divorce,...

 When life falls apart—through divorce, betrayal, loss, or a devastating curveball—we often carry a quiet, heavy guilt. Not because others blame us… but because we do. “I should have known.” “I should have seen the signs.” “If only I had done something different…” In this episode, we’re talking about the hidden burden of self-blame and why forgiving yourself is a crucial step in true healing. Lett...

Loneliness isn’t just about being alone — it’s about feeling disconnected.  And when women are starting over in midlife — after divorce, death, job loss, or a medical diagnosis — loneliness can sneak in fast and settle in deep. Your routine changes.  Your person may be gone.  Your identity feels shaken.  And depression can make it feel safer to stay home than to reach out. But here’s the hard trut...

After a big life shift—divorce, loss, relocation, or starting over—housing is often one of the first and biggest decisions we face. Buying or selling a home can feel intimidating because it’s not just emotional… it’s financial. In this episode, we’re talking through the basics of real estate so you can walk into conversations with agents and lenders informed, grounded, and confident. I’m not here...

When life feels heavy, our minds naturally zoom in on what’s wrong. Loss, disappointment, and stress can create a negative filter where everything feels harder than it really is. But here’s the hopeful truth: your brain can change. In today’s episode, we’re talking about the power of remembering the good —not in a shallow, “just think positive” way, but in a grounded, science-backed way. Research...

When we talk about physical health, we usually think about food and movement—but real health goes deeper. It includes how we sleep, how we manage stress, and how our nervous system functions. Today we’re talking about magnesium, a mineral that plays a role in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body—and one many of us are deficient in. Recently, a study suggested that magnesium may be as effecti...

 After a major life transition like divorce, betrayal, loss, or job upheaval, many women struggle with a painful question: “Can I trust myself anymore?” In this episode, we talk about what biblical, God-centered wisdom really looks like—and how God invites us to stop carrying the pressure of having to get every decision “perfect.” We’ll explore how wisdom isn’t about reacting in anger, proving a p...

Exploring how choosing “less” — fewer possessions, fewer obligations, less visual and mental clutter — can actually create more peace, time, margin, freedom, and joy. Minimalism not as deprivation, but as intentional living.

Life is full of moments that feel deeply unfair — divorce, betrayal, unexpected loss, medical diagnoses and broken dreams. When something feels unfair, it can leave us angry, hurt, resentful, stuck, or spinning in “why me?”  This episode explores how to process, heal, and release what feels unfair so we can move forward and rebuild lives filled with hope, purpose, and peace.

Do you ever feel like time has slipped through your fingers?  Between grief, starting over, caretaking, work, and everyday responsibilities, many women feel like they don’t have enough time — or that the time they do have is fragmented and unproductive. In this episode, we’re talking about reclaiming lost time — not by cramming more into our schedules, but by rethinking how we use the small, overl...

Intermittent fasting has become a popular health trend — but is it actually helpful, especially for women in midlife who are navigating stress, hormonal changes, grief, or starting over? In this episode, we break down what intermittent fasting really is, the potential benefits, different ways to approach it, and how to discern whether it’s a healthy option for you — not just what works on social m...

When life turns upside down — through divorce, loss, job changes, or unexpected transitions — it can feel like everything is happening to us. In today’s episode, we unpack Stephen Covey’s powerful 90/10 Rule: 10% of life is what happens to us, and 90% is how we respond . This doesn’t mean minimizing pain or pretending hard things don’t hurt. It means recognizing that even in the middle of grief, u...

When life changes suddenly, finances are often the last thing we feel emotionally ready to deal with - but they are one of the most important areas to tend to. In this episode we are talking about financial housekeeping: the practical, often overlooked tasks that help protect you, reduce stress and create stability as you start over. Please understand, this isn't about becoming a financial ex...

Together, we’ll explore how reflection can lead to renewal and how to s...

Sometimes the simplest things can make a biggest difference like kindness. Whether it’s Christmas or any ordinary Tuesday, random acts of kindness can shift our perspective, lift our mood, and remind us that we still have something to give — no matter what season of life we’re in. Let's talk about practical ideas for spreading joy to others — even when you’re the one who could use some joy yo...

Grief, heartbreak, disappointment and sadness all feel heightened in contrast to the joy and merriment around us this time of year. If you feel like you are in a dark place this Christmas, then this is the episode for you. Light overcoming darkness is what the Christm...

Have you ever heard the scripture that says God is close to the broken hearted? It's comforting until you actually feel that way. In the middle of our pain we rarely feel close to God. We feel lonely. How do we line up the truth of the scripture with the reality of what we feel? Let's talk about that.

It's important to take a moment - to look back and  reflect on this past year - what worked? What didn't? What kind of woman do you want to become? Knowing the answers to these questions help shape our goals for the new year. I'm not talking about making crazy over the top unattainable goals. I'm talking about making realistic, doable goals that move you in the direction of an...
