    Thankfulness (Part 1)

    Thankfulness (Part 1)

    In this episode, we talk about the importance of thankfulness in all seasons of life.  In seasons of "extraness," it is so easy to succumb to grumpiness and bitterness.  However, the most simple and effective way to cure this is to simply remind yourself of the things you have to be grateful for.  We hope this conversation helps you reflect on the things you have to be grateful for.

    Negative Self Talk

Love these two and this podcast!

While listening to this podcast, I have laughed a lot, cried a little, but mostly been extremely encouraged! Abby and Jerrod have an incredible story and they have created this podcast to now reach so many others. Through their own personal testimonies, they are real, honest & vulnerable! Anyone will be able to relate to this podcast no matter what you’re facing right now. I am so proud of them and honored to call them my close friends! Thank you for sharing your lives with us! You have no idea the impact you are making ❤️

I feel guilty!

I’ve listen since nearly the beginning and have heard you ask for us all to leave reviews, especially if we’re liking it. Well, I’m loving the podcast but didn’t think I could express it eloquently enough to write a good enough review...so how many weeks later and I’m just giving in and doing it! The last two weeks, I had to press pause until I was ready to let the flood gates open, I can’t begin to imagine the grief and struggle Tara and Joe went through losing their baby girl. Your Podcast makes me want to be a better parent, makes me realize I don’t have to have it all together and inspires me to pray with my kiddos more everyday! Keep doing what you are doing and I’m sorry for my very late review. 😁
