    For the One... Rising from the Ashes

    For the One... Rising from the Ashes

    For the woman who feels like her heart is a battlefield. Your heart is weighed down with tension or heaviness. Maybe you look around and just see loss; unmet expectations. Despair and disappointment. 

    You’re grieved. Drained. Burned out. Confused. 

    Maybe you feel like your life is the battlefield and you’re getting hit with the shrapnel. From a toxic job, a circle of drama at church, conflict with your kids or your husband.

    I’ve thought a lot about his word ‘ashes.’ It paints a picture of something getting lit on fire and endlessly burning until there is nothing left. 

    I’m hearing that there are quite a few women in that place; feeling stuck in the ashes. From personal experience, in the throws of navy seal mommy boot camp, I met the middle of a valley filled with ashes. I was at the end of myself in every way possible... and then the 'suddenly' of God showed up.If you need a strong dose of empathy, compassion and a prophetic word to get your heart hoping again, this episode is all yours love.

    There is a fresh word from the Lord in this season to see what He sees and to say what He is saying about your life. There is a fresh wind to rise again.

    For the One Feeling Left Behind

    For the One Feeling Left Behind

    A heart-to-heart conversation for the woman who feels like she's been left behind.  It seems lately like so many women are experiencing massive transitions; like friends moving away, entering first-time motherhood, and seeing their coworkers get promoted. And in the wake of all this change, we can feel abandoned. Lonely. And straight up left behind. 

    So this week on the podcast, I want to encourage the woman who finds herself in a lonely place. The woman who keeps dreaming of past seasons and friends she used to have. The woman who feels stuck between who she was and who she is becoming.

    This is your bold encouragement for this season. You are seen and wildly loved. And while you may feel left behind, you are not forgotten.

    For the One Called to Create (With Guest, Jackie Wachter)

    For the One Called to Create (With Guest, Jackie Wachter)

    Calling all Creatives; gardeners, artists, musicians, small shop owners...

    Creativity and the Kingdom of God go hand-in-hand. As creatives, we are called to steward ideas, inspiration, and the very talents God has woven into our DNA. But it's a process that takes care and cultivation.



    We've got Jackie Wachter on the podcast today; founder of FOUNT Leather Goods based in Cleveland Ohio. She's unraveling her story of honing in her drive for fashion and discovering God in the middle of what she thought were simply childhood passions.



    Maybe, creative, you've been in a dry season and need a fresh reminder of your calling. You've hit some roadblocks and you need a big sister in faith or a seasoned mentor to come alongside you and remind you why what you do is essential in your faith.



    Meet Jackie Wachter. She is the Creative Director and CoFounder (along with her husband Phillip - CEO) of FOUNT, a Cleveland based luxury leather goods brand. The couple started the brand in 2014 in their Cleveland Heights apartment. FOUNT has since grown to five brick and mortar store locations and counting. The word FOUNT by definition means “An abundant source of desirable quality.” That’s exactly what they are striving to create through their heirloom bags, which are constructed from all Italian leather and solid brass hardware, made with fair trade practices, and come with a lifetime guarantee.

Hmmargiotta ,

One of a kind

I love this Podcast, Laura, and Ruah and Ember. Each episode is written so personalized to the listener that if there is a subject that doesn’t personally resonate with me, there are still truths I can take with me but there is always someone I can send it to. I highly recommend this podcast as well her Laura’s Bible studies and everything Ruah and Ember does!!!

Kristimistie ,
