    God’s Will for My Life: How to Stop Overthinking and Start Walking in Faith

    Have you ever asked, “Am I missing God’s will for my life?” You’re not alone. Big decisions can feel paralyzing — we wonder if we’re making the “right” choice, if we’re about to ruin our future, or if we’ll somehow step outside of God’s plan. In this episode, Grace unpacks what Scripture says about God’s will, how He guides us, and how to silence the enemy’s anxiety that keeps us frozen in fear. You’ll learn how to find peace in decision-making, why you can’t miss God’s plan if you’re seeking Him, and how to trust Him to redirect you if you take a wrong step. If you’re wrestling with a decision, this episode will remind you that God is a good Father who knows every choice you’ll ever make — and He’s not trying to trick you.

Later, she would walk through the heartbreaking loss of a stillborn baby and endure complicated pregnancies that tested her body, her heart, and her faith. Yet, Kayren’s story is not defined by tragedy. With raw honesty and deep faith, she opens up about how Jesus met her in the darkest valleys, bringing healing, redemption, and a testimony of His unending grace. This episode is for anyone who has faced betrayal, grief, or suffering and needs to be reminded that even when life brings you storms, Jesus alone gives you the strength and the courage to dance in the puddles.

    Toddlers, Time-Outs, and Telling It Like It Is

    Motherhood is a gift and it’s even more beautiful when you don’t walk through it alone. In this episode, you get to hear a little bit from our personal babies. This episode will always be a special one for us. I’m joined by my sister-in-law and built-in bestie to talk about raising children, handling time-outs (for them and for us), and telling the truth about what mom life is really like. We open up about our postpartum journeys, our shared mom guilt, and how we’ve balanced each other out in parenting. We talk about the way our kids are growing up like siblings, how we discipline our kids, and how our friendship has grown through real conflict and forgiveness. And of course, we laugh, play a round of “Sister-in-Law Smackdown,” and share what we admire most about each other as moms and women. If you’re in the thick of it—tired, messy, figuring it out day by day—this one’s for you. We see you. You’re not alone. And those kids? They love you through every single second of it.
