You’re doing everything right—but still single. You’ve prayed. Stayed faithful. Attended BYU. And yet… no husband. No temple sealing. No timeline that makes sense. You sit in church surrounded by couples and families, wondering where you fit—and if you even matter. You’ve heard the talks. You strive to keep the commandments. Tried to stay hopeful. But deep down, you can’t shake the ache: 🌀 Did I miss my chance? 🌀 Am I broken—or worse, forgotten? 🌀 What does this mean for my exaltation… and about my worth? If any of that sounds familiar, you’re not crazy. You’re not broken. And you’re not alone.

I didn’t get married until I was 52. I know the questions that keep you up at night. I’ve lived the waiting, the wondering, and the quiet heartbreak. But I also discovered something life-changing: You can stop waiting to be happy and still be faithful. You can build a life you love—even while hoping for something more. And most of all, you can trust God and trust yourself again. 💡 In this podcast, I’ll teach you how—with proven faith-based tips and tools, self-coaching strategies, and a reminder of who you really are. Whether you’re never married, divorced, widowed—or not even LDS but still feeling all of this—this podcast is for you. Because this isn’t just about your relationship status.

    In this episode, I’m getting real about fear—the kind that shows up when something feels unfamiliar, uncertain, or out of your control.

    109. Is Your Past Keeping You Stuck? 3 Steps to Break Free

    Are you using old failures, heartbreaks, or missed opportunities as proof that your future can’t be different? Do you catch yourself saying things like, “I’ve tried before and it didn’t work… so why bother?” or “If I couldn’t make it happen then, I probably can’t now.” You’re not alone. So many single LDS women quietly let their past set the limits for what’s possible next — without realizing the only place the past even exists is in our thoughts. In this episode, we’ll talk about why your past does not get the final say, how to stop replaying the same painful story, and what it really means to become future-focused — full of hope, creativity, and possibility again.

    108. Do You Have an Unachieved Goal? 3 Strategies to Make It Your Reality

    Do you have a goal you keep wishing for…but it’s still just a wish? In this episode, I’m sharing something that’s been on my heart since President Russell M. Nelson’s passing last week — one of his powerful teachings: “You don’t wish for a blessing; you work for a blessing and you make it possible.” We’ll look at the story of Limhi’s people in the Book of Mormon, talk honestly about why we get stuck (hello, self-doubt 👋), and I’ll walk you through three practical strategies to move from wishing to working so your goal can finally become your reality. If you’re ready to stop wishing and start achieving your goals, this one’s for you. 💪✨ WHAT’S NEXT?

    106. Your Happily-Ever-After Starts Today: Life Lessons from Disney Princesses - with Valerie Beus

    We all grew up on princess fairy tales — Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty — and without realizing it, those stories shaped how we thought life and love should look. Be beautiful. Be sweet. Endure hardship. And eventually, a handsome prince will show up out of nowhere, fall instantly in love, and “save” you. But what if… those same stories could actually teach us powerful gospel truths? In this episode, I’m joined by Valerie Beus, host of Family Movie Night for Latter-Day Saints, who helps families find gospel lessons in their favorite films. Together, we’re reimagining these princesses — not as helpless damsels waiting for a prince — but as women of strength, faith, and purpose. We talk about: 💎 The gospel principles in Cinderella’s courage to step into opportunities 💎 How Snow White’s kindness and community-building show quiet strength 💎 Why Sleeping Beauty’s “long nap” might really be a season of preparation If you’ve ever felt “stuck in a tower” or like your life is on hold until something changes, this conversation will give you a fresh perspective — and maybe even a little hope, courage, and happily-ever-after of your own. 💫 WHAT’S NEXT?

    105. Desperate or Desired? Which One Are You - and How It's Shaping Your Life

    Desperate or desired? The energy you bring to relationships shapes not only your love life but also your confidence, your choices, and even your faith. In this episode, we’ll explore the difference between desperate energy — chasing, settling, and taking scraps — and desired energy, where you stand in your worth as a daughter of God. I’ll share one of my own stories (yes, the one with the infamous ‘Mr. Good Kisser’), reveal why desperation repels the right kind of man, and walk you through my simple ‘Relationship Scan’ tool to help you start seeing exactly how you’re showing up in dating, friendships, and life. If you’re ready to stop settling and start attracting the kind of love God has for you, this is your episode. WHAT’S NEXT?
