    03 | Surrender Over Self-Sufficiency: Learning to Rest as the Real You

    In this continuation of my conversation with my sister Michele Romans (from Episode 2), we dive deeper into what it really means to surrender to God—and why it’s the only true path to rest.  From navigating business dreams and motherhood to learning how to hear from God in everyday moments, this episode is a raw, honest look at what happens when we lay down self-sufficiency and trust the God who sees the real us. We also reflect on Hebrews 4:9–13 and the freedom that comes when we stop performing and allow ourselves to be fully known by God—mess and all. Inside this episode: Hearing from God in personal and practical ways (including “code words”)Co-laboring with God vs. striving on your ownWhy surrender can feel like rest when you trust how God sees youWhat motherhood and ministry can look like in the same seasonAnd why smart business tactics sometimes conflict with faith-filled obedience— Want to stay in the loop and get exclusive encouragement, behind-the-scenes updates, and helpful resources straight to your inbox?

    02 | When You're Stuck: How Prayer & Fasting Stir Hunger for God

    Does the topic of prayer and fasting stir up mixed emotions or confusing concepts for you? In this episode, I sit down with my sister Michele to talk through some amazing stories of breakthrough she has experienced recently through fasting. We break down the basics of how this vital spiritual practice can actually stir a surprising new hunger for God in our hearts—even when we feel far from Him. Nothing fancy or legalistic here—just simple surrender and a heart constantly asking God to help, believing that He will. Join us as we explore what it looks like to incorporate Jesus’s lifestyle of prayer and fasting into our own day-to-day lives, especially when we’re feeling spiritually stuck.
