Show notes

The Most Entertaining Catcher in the World and that means something coming from me! I'm so excited for y'all to hear from Bill. He is the catcher for the fun and unique Savannah Bananas and a fellow Number 1! I loved this conversation because we got to geek out over catching (helllooooo, trick transfers) and I had the pleasure to hear his heart for how God can use him in this space. It was awesome to get to know him through this conversation, I'll have to have him on the podcast again because I feel like we just scratched the surface!

Ep. 8 Jen Schroeder - Visionary, Conviction, Confident Sep 26, 2022

Show notes

If you're in the softball space, you probably know who Jen is, if you follow her on social media, you have seen much of who she is, but I'm hoping that you get to see more about how she got to where she is now. She is literally a walking "You Have to be Odd to be Number One" podcast because she is SO good at calling out and celebrating the uniqueness of others! We covered everything from parenting, to coaching, to leading others, and being comfortable with who you are. Jen is a force in every aspect of her life and you'll get a glimpse of how it has shaped her.
Any time I get to chat with Jen, it's never enough time, but there was so much in this episode that can help us see and celebrate others, and I loved every second. I hope you do too!

Show notes

Y'all are going to love this conversation! Amanda shares so many awesome bits of gold from growing up with passion that others didn't understand, having a long distance relationship, and the life changing impact a young girl had on her life. We of course talked all things Gator softball and what makes her one of the toughest outs in softball, but truly I hope you get a glimpse at the person that Amanda is even more so than the talented athlete she is.

Ep. 6 Delaney Spaulding - Fierce, Determined, Realistic Sep 12, 2022

Show notes

How would you feel if you had a serious injury when you were on the cusp of your biggest dream? Would you fold, or come back stronger?
Meet my good friend Delaney Spaulding! Many of you might know her as a UCLA Bruin or the shortstop of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Softball team, but now you'll get to know her on a much more personal level. Delaney shares about how she matured into fully owning who she is and what it meant to her to make the Olympic roster. Then she walks us through her determination to get back on the field after tearing her ACL in the first game of our pre-Olympic tour.
Her journey back to from injury is one of my favorites and I think her resilience will inspire you!

Ep. 5.2 Aarika Ure - PART TWO Sep 05, 2022

Show notes

Here is PART TWO of my episode with my big sister Aarika Ure! We talk way more in depth on the adoption process for her daughter and I have a brief epiphany because of some unexpected truth she drops. Overall it's another great episode getting to see her resilience shine and her heart for other people, specifically birth mothers, which is truly special. I love how God has moved in her life over the last few years and how He truly can make an impossible situation truly good.

Ep 5.1 - Aarika Ure -Trailblazer, Resilient, Strong Aug 29, 2022

Show notes

You guys get to hear from my big sister! I loved getting to sit down with Aarika and talk about her ability to bounce back and how that has become a strength in her life. She and her husband adopted a little girl in December of 2021 and we get a little glimpse into that process and what brought them to that choice. It really is beautiful!
We chatted for a long time though, so this is just PART ONE of my conversation with Aarika, there is way more to come about the adoption process and I have a brief epiphany in the next one, so listen to this one and follow up next week!
