Her new book You are not behind is out now!

You are not behind Sep 17, 2024

We are living in a time where many people feel behind in life due to the pervasive influence of social media, which often portrays unrealistic and an idealized version of achievements, relationships and lifestyles. Add to that the societal pressures to reach certain milestones by specific ages – such as marriage, having children, home ownership, and career success – and it can exacerbate feelings of inadequacy and delay. The impact of these things are far reaching and lead individuals to feel stuck, overlooked and as if they should constantly strive to catch up.

Meghan Ryan Asbury tackles this pressure head on and offers encouragement and spiritual guidance for Christians grappling with feelings of unmet expectations, milestones and unfulfilled dreams.

52 life lessons she learned in recovery Sep 03, 2024

My husband sent me one of Lisa’s reels knowing we would be instant friends and he was right. Thankfully Lisa accepted my invitation to be a guest on the podcast and her story is fascinating.

Lisa was the “good girl” who made all A’s and always showed up for work, yet she was also binge drinking, struggling with an ED and searching for love in all the toxic guys.

She got her PhD, went to years of therapy, and tried every new age solution under the sun but what finally healed her was a man named Jesus.

She wrote a book you can pre-order now called 52 lessons I learned in recovery

The WHY behind the wait Aug 20, 2024

Nearly all of my most popular social media videos are about the WHY behind the wait. I get the most feedback, DM's, and shares of people wanting to have more conversations about what it looks like to wait for sex for marriage, and HOW to make that possible. It's not purity culture but it's not hookup culture either. It is God's design for sex no matter your past or present. It's the messy middle and I think we need more conversations here so I recorded a podcast on it! Here are the links I mentioned in the episode:

Planning your schedule around the 4 stages of your period!? May 07, 2024

Did you know you have FOUR stages to your period, it makes sense you have more energy and are more outgoing one week, and want to stay at home the next because this is all part of your biology!

My guest today, Macy Maxson, dreamed of a day when women's health actually supported women. From clean period products to technology that supports cycles to healthcare that heals women not just put a bandaid on to cover the problem.

She wanted a period brand that embraced femininity, not tried to get rid of it. Hey we should bleed for something right?

When she couldn't find anything that encompassed all of this, she created Garnuu.

Life Lessons from Taylor Swift Dec 05, 2023

Love her or not, Taylor Swift is a force to be reckoned with. She has broken nearly every record the music industry has to offer, named Time woman of the year, Forbes most powerful woman, and has more fans than all of the NFL teams combined. When our daughters became swifties I couldn't help but do a deep dive into who is this powerhouse of a woman. I wanted to know how she got to where she is today. Was she born lucky? Was she at the right place at the right time? The past few months I have learned all things Taylor Swift and realized there is much to be learned from her, so I recorded a podcast episode about it! I'll unpack

Why and how people tried to undermine her success.
How she went door to door in Nashville asking for a record deal at the age of ELEVEN
How she was sued for 5 million dollars, countersued for $1 and WON!

Here is a fun episode of what we can learn from Taylor Swift and even finding Jesus in some of her lyrics. I hope you enjoy!

171. What to do if your man, or you, struggle with P0rn Oct 24, 2023

It’s estimated that 60-72 percent of men in the Church are sex addicts. And 70% of wives of sex addicts experience some symptoms of PTSD.* People are looking for hope and healing. But many of them are trapped in a cycle that never resolves in recovery. Best-selling author and sexual theology educator Dannah Gresh and her husband Bob say they have known that harrowing pattern, but they’re stepping out to tell a story of hope.

Gresh demonstrates how to forgive, live with joy, and hold your head high while you participate in His redemption story for your husband. You may feel like your story is over, but no one writes better—or happier—endings than Jesus.

Every time I talk about sex on the interwebs I get comments that say "YES, and you would love the great sex rescue" And they are RIGHT! You can imagine my excitement when I got the opportunity to interview the author of this best-selling (life-changing) book!

In this episode we bust lies many people have believed about what sex is and what it isn't. How it's a gift but not an obligation. It is sacred but it also needs to be talked about with your spouse. Also how Christians are supposed to go from "don't think about it" to "enjoy it" as soon as they walk down the aisle???

All of this and more is what we unpack on this episode!

WARNING: if you want to continue to stay stuck, exhausted, overwhelmed, and not making any forward progress at all on these things you can’t go a day without thinking about… then don't listen to this episode.

Rebecca George and I chat about:

Treating your calling seriously instead of just a “cute little side hobby”
Seeing our calling like a Venn Diagram (what matters to us, what matters to God, what matters to other people)
When God asks us to start something new (fear, insecurity, etc.)
Striving (and how, for most women, its roots run deep in our past)
When God asks us to quit something (and how He uses past seasons to carry us into our next assignment)
Macroquitting vs. Microquitting
Illuminating the talent around you
Finding your zone of genius (and also the importance of finding others who have a different one than you!)

Surrender Your Story: Ditch the Myth of Control and Discover Freedom in Trusting God

This is for the control freak Feb 28, 2023

For a long time, popular podcaster, Tara Sun tried controlling her own life, until one day she heard the audible voice of God say, “You aren’t supposed to be here.” Just like the rest of us, Tara was determined to salvage her life’s plan because she thought she knew better than God. But like everyone else who has tried to white- knuckle their way to self-fulfillment, Tara discovered what lies on the other side: frustration, disappointment and exhaustion when life doesn’t go our way.

She wrote a book that takes us on a journey of discovering the anicdoe for the empthy myth of control.

I haven't yet shared about how post covid I started having panic attacks about traveling. I started sharing this (embarrassing) fact with a few close friends and many people told me, ME TOO!!!! Or just some unexpected anxiety that came from nowhere in this post-covid world.

So I found a podcast that helped me a TON and I reached out to the host to see if I could have her counsel me live on a podcast episode. Thankfully Diana Swillinger is a good sport and this may very possibly be my favorite episode to date.

Sandra Stanley and the relationship with your parents, now that you are a grown-up. Jan 24, 2023

When I posted to social what topics you want covered more here on the Truth for your Twenties podcast. Several of you mentioned a relationship with your parents as you become an adult.

And I can think of no one to unpack this subject better than my personal hero, Sandra Stanley

Sandra and her husband Andy co-wrote a new book on parenting and if you have been around here for more than a minute you have probably heard me quote Andy at least a time or two. He is what I believe one of the best communicators of our day founder of Atlanta-based North Point Ministries consisting of a network of 180 churches around the globe that collectively serve over 200,000 people weekly.

And the author of the book I recommend almost every day the new rules for love sex and dating.

His beautiful wife Sandra went to Georgia Tech and then went on to get her master of arts from Dallas Theological Seminary. Sandra has a heart for foster kids and foster families, as she and Andy have been foster parents since 2010.

Together they have raised 3 of their own biological children and just wrote a book called parenting, getting it right.

We are chatting about how to parent FOR THE RELATIONSHIP and how to repair it even if you are the child.

The Why behind the Wait Nov 29, 2022

Nearly all of my most popular social media videos are about the WHY behind the wait. I get the most feedback, DM's, and shares of people wanting to have more conversations about what it looks like to wait for sex for marriage, and HOW to make that possible. It's not purity culture but it's not hookup culture either. It is God's design for sex no matter your past or present. It's the messy middle and I think we need more conversations here so I recorded a podcast on it! Here are the links I mention in the episode:

Ryan's book, scared to life

Being scared to death but jumping forward anyway Nov 22, 2022

Ryan George, author of Scared to Life: Tales of a Good God Who Reveals His Heart When ours is Racing. Ryan George visited all seven continents and both polar circles, searching for meaning and acceptance, contentment and recognition. As he ran from pain, regret, and insecurity, he chased diverse adrenaline rushes and social media affirmation. What he actually found was a God with new definitions for words like life, success, and adventure. Despite decades in the church, his faith became real and alive in contexts far from Sunday services.

Ryan is a master storyteller and whenever someone listening says they would be scared to death [to bungee jump, hike a frozen waterfall, BASE jump] that he is scared to life. Ryan shares sweat-inducing stories of adventure throughout the book and pairs them with lessons of faith he’s learned from following his God-given love of the adrenaline rush.

Why do bad things happen to good people? Oct 18, 2022

My husband and I recently hosted a zoom call called "Bring all your faith questions" and not surprisingly the question of, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" was the theme of the conversation.

There are books upon books unpacking this subject but here are my bullet points

It's not supposed to be this way. We were created to live forever in a garden utopia walking with God, but sin entered the world and so did death, disease, hurricanes, and suffering.
It's a flawed question because bad things in my life I cried about ended up being very good and who is to decide who is a good or bad person?
This is not our home, nature is beautiful even more than it is functional reminding us there is another garden of perfection on the other side of eternity.

SO MUCH MORE to unpack. This is why we are talking about it this week on the Truth for your Twenties podcast.
