The Asha June, Oh! Report

Intended Design // Wellness

Honestly can’t believe it’s taken me this long to throw in a Little Mermaid reference! But seriously, I hope this short and sweet and simple reminder brings you freedom. Knowledge can be a great gift, but knowledge itself is not what sets us free. Knowledge of truth is what sets us free. “…you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” // John 8:32 Here’s to deep breaths, long walks, lots of water, and lots of sleep. (Yes, even in the midst of Maycember.) This is a public episode.

Intended Design // Womanhood & Motherhood

Before we even get started, I need to make it very clear that I do not believe motherhood is the end-all-be-all of womanhood. Motherhood is a beautiful gift, but it is not the ultimate gift. I titled this the way I did because I am talking about both in this podcast. And while you must be a woman to be a mother, you absolutely do not have to be a mother to be a woman. And with that, I invite you to press play. ps. As promised, here’s the website [https://biblehub.com/nas/genesis/2.htm] I use that links each word in the Bible to the original word and definition. (It’s the “Strong’s NASB” version from the far-right dropdown at the top of the page.) pps. Some of the insight in this podcast came from this Instagram post [https://www.instagram.com/p/DSA-_-ek894/?img_index=1]. This is a public episode.

Intended Design // Real Faith

This month, we’re digging into God’s intended design for different aspects of life and creation. First up… faith! This is simply 12 minutes of me sharing a real experience from my very real life. Because that’s who faith was designed for — not infallible robots in a simulation but real people in the real world. This is a public episode.

On living your dash...

You may have noticed the little line on my wrist in pictures or in person — it’s simply a dash — and I’m excited to share the story (or poem, rather) behind the ink. It’s a family tradition with a very exciting and eventful inception. (Side note: getting a tattoo with my mother-in-law and brother-in-law is one of my most fun memories.) ps. I referred to Jake’s cousin as a “former” Navy SEAL in the pod, and I apologize if that’s the wrong way to word it. I’m guessing once-a-SEAL-always-a-SEAL applies here, but I just meant that he isn’t currently working as a SEAL at this time. We are so very grateful for his sacrifice and service!

On fortune cookies...

This is a real fun one today. A seemingly silly and simple story that is so special to me and actually pretty dang significant. Today (April 23rd) is the anniversary of the Fortune Cookie Date. Seventeen years ago, God spoke to my heart through two little slips of paper. Listen in for all the details. This is a public episode.
