Hey Happy & Healthy fam! I’m SO excited about this episode because today I got to chat with the absolute sweetheart, Reece—yes, that Reece from the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Netflix show! She’s not only a DCC, but such a radiant, Christ-centered woman and honestly, one of the most requested guests from y’all. We talked all about her journey to becoming a cheerleader, how life changed overnight after the show aired, her sweet marriage to Will, struggles with body image, and how she stays rooted in Jesus through it all. I seriously loved this convo—it’s full of wisdom, faith, and real talk. You’re gonna love it! Follow Reece: Instagram TikTok Bible Study Reece Loves ORDER MY BOOK⁠⁠⁠⁠! - Becoming Happy and Healthy!

Hey fam! In the last part of my Relationship series, I’m diving into something so many of us struggle with—how to stay true to YOU in a relationship. I’m sharing my personal journey with codependency, what it looked like when I completely lost myself, and how I’ve grown through it. I'm talking about healthy boundaries, red flags, emotional independence, and how to stay anchored in your identity (spoiler: it should never be dependent on someone else!). I also give y’all book recs, tips on maintaining your own life while dating, and real talk about what it means to date with intention. I pray this episode blesses you and gives you the confidence to stay grounded in who God made you to be. ⁠⁠ORDER MY BOOK⁠⁠!

Hey friends!! This one’s a fun one because I got to sit down with none other than my HUSBAND, Kaleb, and put him in the HOT SEAT 😅🔥! We’re getting into what guys really think—yup, we’re spilling the men’s tea ☕. From “you deserve better” to what modesty actually means to guys, and why men sometimes pull back even after showing interest. This one is JUICY but also super helpful for my girls navigating the dating world. Kaleb shared some honest truths about male vulnerability, dating mindsets, and what actually makes a woman “wifey material.” PLUS, we answered your wildest questions—from modesty to sex drive to how fast a guy knows you’re the one (his answer SHOCKED me 😳).

Hey friends! Part 4 of my Relationship Ready series is all about breakups...I know. They suck. But so many of us go through them and rarely talk honestly about them. Whether you’re heartbroken, confused, or just wondering if you're in the right relationship, I hope this encourages you. I’ve had my share of heartbreaks—some mutual, some messy—and I know the pain, but I’ve also seen God’s healing and redemption firsthand. I share stories from my own life, tips for coping in healthy ways, the importance of setting boundaries, and why seeking God first is the absolute best way to heal and move forward. Remember, God is not the author of confusion. Let’s get out of the dance with confusion and walk in clarity and healing. Books Mentioned:Good Boundaries and Goodbyes by Lysa TerKeurst ORDER MY BOOK!

What's up guys! This is the second episode of my Relationship Ready series where I am re-posting some of my most popular episodes while I am taking time away to be with our baby! This episode is a good one. I’m diving deep into singleness, waiting seasons, and how to thrive instead of just surviving. I know how tough the waiting can be. But I want to encourage you — you are NOT forgotten. God sees you, loves you, and has purpose for you right now. I’m sharing my personal journey, biblical wisdom from the story of Ruth, the qualities of a Proverbs 31 woman, and what it means to be “found” while already walking in purpose. So whether you’re in a season of heartbreak, confusion, or you’re just wondering “when is it my turn?”, this one’s for you. Let’s get you encouraged, equipped, and empowered to walk out your season with grace and joy. Recommended Books The Sacred Search by Gary Thomas ORDER MY BOOK!

Alright friends, this is the very first episode in my Relationship Ready series! Since I’m about to have our sweet baby (so wild!!), I’ll be re-sharing some of my most popular episodes all about relationships while I take a little break for maternity leave. And honestly, I couldn’t think of a better way to kick it off than with my bestie Madison Prewett Troutt. This episode is packed with truth, laughter, and so much wisdom—I just know it’s going to bless you big time. We hadn’t recorded together in forever, so this was such a sweet reunion and honestly, it turned into one of the most real and heartfelt convos.We talked all about her book The Love Everybody Wants, and let me tell you—it’s powerful. Madi shared how she started writing this book when she was single and finished it after getting married. She opens up about heartbreak, healing, finding identity in Christ, and how to actually love others well. We also dove into some big topics: why singleness is actually a gift (yes, we’ve both been there!), what red flags to look out for in relationships, how to know if he’s the one, and why your relationship with God and yourself has to come first. It’s deep, vulnerable, and full of encouragement—I think you will love it.

Last month ago, we sat down and shared the heartbreak of getting rejected from law school — a moment that felt like a punch to the gut after months of studying, praying, and hoping. It was raw, real, and left us asking, “God, why would you bring us this far just to say no?” But this week… we have an update! In this episode, we open up about what’s happened since the rejection — the doubts, the prayers, the unexpected twists, and how God moved in ways we didn’t see coming. If you’ve ever faced a closed door, been disappointed by an outcome you prayed for, or questioned where God is in the silence, this one is for you. We get honest about how this law school journey has stretched our faith and share what we’ve learned about trusting God in the middle of “not yet.” Whether you’re chasing a dream, waiting on an answer, or trying to hold on to hope — we pray this encourages you to believe that God’s timing really is better than ours. Because sometimes, the rejection isn’t the end of the story… it’s just the beginning of a better one!!
