I Didn't Sign Up for This Apr 17, 2019

Show notes

The month of April is Autism Awareness Month, and often we use this month to celebrate the many achievements of these exceptional individuals.

But there is another side, often walked in silence and that is parenting a child with Autism.

As a mother of a child with Autism, I wanted to give a raw and honest portrayal of what it is like to raise a child on the spectrum.

Today on the show, I share my story. Listen in.

Surviving a Sexless Marriage Apr 10, 2019

Show notes

As a society we talk a lot ABOUT sex, we may jokes about it, dish out all the "How To" bedroom tips...

But it is extremely its RARE to see examples of someone discussing sex WITH the person he or she actually is actually having sex with.

Let's just be honest, it's awkward.

How do you communicate to your spouse "I am not happy with our sex life"

How do tell the person you love that you feel sexually unfulfilled?

This is not easy stuff friends.

No one teaches us how to do that.

Well on todays show my husband we are going to dive in to it.

Joins us as we sit face to face and talk about navigating the dry seasons and challenges in our sex life.

Listen in.

Marriage is a Trap Mar 23, 2019

Show notes

...I love you too much to leave, but it's hurting me too much to stay.

"At times marriage is painful. You give someone else access to the most intimate part of you - your heart. And you trust them to care for it like their very own. But, because we are human it doesn’t always happen that way…we hurt each other, we say things we never meant, and suddenly a cement barrier begin to form around our chest. We don’t want to let go of that pain. We don’t want to accept that they are just a human as we are."

Join my husband Aaron and I as we dive in to the complexities of navigating marriage.

T*ts, Toddlers, and Tigerstripes Mar 23, 2019

Show notes

Do your boobs hang low? Do they wobble to and fro? Can you tie them in a knot? Can you tie them in a bow? Can you throw them over your shoulder like a Continental Solider? Do your boobs hang low?

Ours do.

Mamas…they didn’t tell us …why they ain’t tell us that our bodies would not only occupied, but fully manhandled, mangled, and marred by tiny little leeches with chubby cheeks, and soft skin.

We are talking about all of that and more on todays episode.

Mamas, this one is for you. (And if you haven't crossed over into the world of motherhood yet, you’ve been warned.)

Why I took a year off Instagram Mar 23, 2019

Show notes

In the past 5-10 years social media has audaciously inserted itself into our lives. It’s made itself at home. Putting its feet up on our coffee tables, eating our food, and outstaying it's welcome. Like an old school sitcom, social media has become the "Urkel", the "Roger", the character who have come to (kind of love) but refuses to leave...

Join me today as I share an old journal entry that led to me getting off social media for an entire year.

Welcome Mar 23, 2019

Show notes

Our lives are written with ink. There are no backspaces, cancels, or delete buttons. Yet, beauty and redemption emerge when we embrace our ink-stained imperfections and share them with one another. This is where we find strength. This is how we overcome.

Join us every week as we push past fear to vulnerably share our narratives and introspections on identity, purpose, dating, marriage, motherhood and everything in between.

Welcome home, friend. This space is for you.
