Ep 15 | Advent: Finding Courage to Bloom in Winter with Kelly Jo Preston
If you find yourself weary and overwhelmed this Christmas season, I want to invite you to come and listen to our season finale and special Christmas episode.
While there is so much fun and joy that comes with the gathering, gift-giving, and seeing this season through our kid’s eyes, I’m most excited about our family’s newest Christmas tradition. It’s called Advent.
Advent is the practice of contemplating God’s arrival into the world through the life of Jesus and the anticipation of his return.
In this episode, you’ll hear some of my own story intersecting motherhood, loss, and faith through the mystery of advent. The stories shared involve a ton of waiting and a lot of hope! I share how God met me in my grief and helped me through and out of my pain. His hope and comfort are like none other and what so many of us need more of right now!
Come find encouragement for your soul today and enjoy this holiday season

Ep 14 | Rethinking Prenatal Nutrition with Lily Nichols, RDN
If I told you that as a pregnant mama, your prenatal nutrition affects the long-term health of not only you and your baby but even your grandchildren-would you believe me? While it sounds a little crazy, the research supports this! What an incredible gift we have the chance to give our growing families.
It is so easy to get food confused in our society. That’s why I’ve invited registered dietician and nutritionist, Lily Nichols to help us understand why many of the prenatal nutritional recommendations offered are actually outdated.
We’re talking about the importance of including real food in your diet, why protein is mama’s top priority and some easy ways to get the most nutrients to you and that growing baby! Let’s dive in!

Have you ever stopped to consider how much change one woman goes through physically, emotionally, and spiritually during pregnancy? While motherhood can bring so much joy, it can bring a lot of other unexpected challenges like postpartum anxiety and depression too.

She’s sharing all the tools she’s using to work through postpartum anxiety the second time around so she can be more present and feel more like herself.

Getting a cancer diagnosis is never something you plan for, especially when you’re a new mom with an eight-month-old son.
In this Voices of Motherhood episode, I’ve invited thyroid cancer survivor, health coach, and founder of Alchemy Juice, Carly Brown, to share her story of navigating motherhood, healing thyroid cancer naturally, and what she’s doing differently in her current pregnancy.
Carly’s embraced the ups and downs of her motherhood journey and is grateful for who she’s become in the process. She’s now healthier, more vibrant, and full of purpose than ever and has turned her challenges into a roadmap to help others detoxify their lives and find health.

Ep 10 | Ari’s Home Birth Story: Harder, Better, & More Beautiful Than I Could Imagine
Who you choose to have in the room during those hours of childbirth makes all the difference in the world. As challenging as Ari’s birth was, I will tell you I wouldn’t change a thing about any of it-especially who I had there with me to welcome our son into the world.
In this episode, I am sitting down with my sweet husband Caleb and our brilliant midwife, Mary Yaganawa to tell Ari's birth story collectively. It’s hard to believe it happened just eight weeks ago! This labor and birth was long and full of complex hurdles, but also a ton of laughter and SO much joy.
I hope it encourages you to know that regardless of the choices you make around who, where, and how you give birth, you can have an empowered birth.
