    Friends Are Benefits

    Friends Are Benefits

    Oh, where would we be without our friends? I will say personally I do not ever want to find out! Turns out spending quality time with friends is not only good for our emotional health, but also super beneficial for our physical health. I mean, who knew a good chat with your pal could help with your inflammation?? Still not sure how that works, but there’s some research out there done by people with much higher intellect than us! And of course, we have some great examples for the spiritual benefits, as well. Listen in and then call a friend to get together for some happy fun!

    We Did a Run, But Did We Die?

    We Did a Run, But Did We Die?

    Are you a runner? We are not runners, but we recently ran a 5K! A very HILLY 5K at that! Who knew? Well, we sure found out... thank goodness it was a drizzly October morning when we set out on this true adventure. We had many laughs, almost tears, encouraging feels and terrifying moments throughout that we are excited to share with you all! Through it all yeah could have trained more, could have been more aware of the word "hills", should have stretched, but in the end we had a blast and crossed that finish line!

    We Went to a Podcast Conference!

    We Went to a Podcast Conference!

    Do you ever feel like it’s time to step up your game, but not sure where to go next? We’ll that’s where we were, so we decided to trek out to Scottsdale, AZ for our first Podcast Conference! (Shout out to She Podcasts Live 2021!) We talk through how hard it is to leave, especially as moms; but also what we learned about podcasting, each other, and ways we want to continue podcasting together. And definitely why it’s all worth it to step out in faith!

    Pumpkin Spice and the Not So Nice

    Pumpkin Spice and the Not So Nice

    In today's episode we deal with some of the tough questions in life... beginning with how and why Leigh-Anne does not like pumpkin spice?!?!?! From there we do dive deeper into some of the real, devastating issues that people face, and honestly there's no straight or right answer to ease the pain that many of us have endured. Having dealt with extreme childhood trauma myself still has it's ups and downs, but when I do get knocked down, I have a hope reminding me to look back up. No matter what you're dealing with right now, we hope this episode provides a glimmer in your day to remind you that all things are working together for the good.
