  • Timing Can Be Everything

    Timing Can Be Everything
    Oct 6 2025
    This week, I open up about the moments in life that nearly broke me—and the unexpected ways God and community showed up to remind me I wasn’t alone. From running (or my version of it!) with a heart full of gratitude, to remembering the days when I had no power, no water, and no money, I share the sobering truth that resilience is often born in the hardest places.You’ll hear a story I’ve never shared publicly, about a season of pain and seizures so severe that I nearly gave up until a letter showed up at just the right time. I talk about the angels God sent to help me, the kindness of friends and strangers who kept my family afloat, and why moving our bodies and moving toward hope go hand in hand.If you are in a dark place right now, please know this: there is hope for you. And if you’re standing in the light, be that hope for someone else.

    Episode Highlights:
    [01:20] A sobering reminder while helping someone in need
    [04:15] Praise at the pump and gratitude for health
    [07:45] The healing power of moving your body
    [12:30] Seizures, pain, and the moment I almost gave up
    [18:15] God’s timing and a letter that saved my life
    [24:00] Stories of community showing up in big ways
    [29:00] Choosing to be hope and light for others

  • Transformation Is Rarely Fun

    Transformation Is Rarely Fun
    Sep 29 2025
    As I prepared for my upcoming TED Talk, I realized the message I couldn’t shake was resilience. Not the easy kind we talk about in hindsight, but the real, raw kind that comes when life shatters your plans and leaves you with no choice but to dig deep.I open my heart about divorce, infidelity, financial struggle, and the mistakes I made along the way. I also share how faith, prayer, and the kindness of others carried me when I thought I couldn’t make it! Through every heartbreak and setback, I’ve learned that resilience is fully about trusting God to turn even the hardest seasons into a foundation for growth, strength, and compassion. I hope that this story reminds you that no matter what you’re facing, you are stronger than you think, and your next chapter can be more beautiful than you ever imagined.

    Episode Highlights:
    [01:30] Preparing for a TED Talk and shifting the topic to resilience
    [03:15] Childhood lessons in faith and early resilience
    [05:00] Divorce, infidelity, and why it felt harder than death
    [09:00] Mistakes I made during divorce and what I wish I’d done differently
    [17:30] The importance of self-care and recognizing red flags
    [20:00] Resilience as a muscle built in adversity
    [22:15] Learning forgiveness, finding strength, and starting anew with Hugh
