Episode 11: The Girl Chat We All Needed with Hannah Adams

Episode 11 of Beautiful Chaos with Natasha is the definition of a major girl chat the kind you wish you could bottle up and replay with your best friends. This week, I sit down with local influencer, wife, and mom of three, Hannah Adams and let me tell you, she is a spitfire Leo in the best way. From the moment we sat down, the walls came down. This wasn’t surface-level conversation… this was real, raw, and completely unfiltered. The kind of dialogue that reminds you how powerful it is when women show up honestly and just say the things. We talk about friendships the good, the hard, and the ones that shape you. We get into marriage, the reality behind the highlight reel, and what it actually takes to show up for your partner and yourself. And of course… we had to get into book talk, because what’s a true girl chat without it? This episode feels like sitting around the table with your people laughing, venting, relating, and leaving feeling a little lighter and a lot more seen. In this episode, we talk about: * Navigating adult friendships and evolving relationships * The real side of marriage and communication * Motherhood with three kids and balancing it all * Book talk, current reads, and why it matters * Showing up authentically in every season of life If you love honest conversations, a little sass, and a whole lot of “same, girl”… this one is for you.  Episode 11 is LIVE on YouTube & anywhere you get your podcasts!

Episode 10: More Than One Way to Become a Mom: A Conversation with Claire DeLay

Episode 10 of Beautiful Chaos with Natasha is one that will stay with you. This week, I sit down with Claire DeLay Oklahoma mom, wife, business owner, and a woman who has said yes to motherhood in more ways than one.  Through foster care, adoption, and biological motherhood, Claire shares what it really looks like to open your home, your heart, and your life to children who need it most. This conversation is raw, honest, and deeply moving. We talk about the calling behind foster care, the emotional highs and lows, the unknowns, and the beauty that can come from stepping into something bigger than yourself. Claire brings a perspective that so many people don’t get to see  the reality behind the process, the love, the heartbreak, and the purpose. Whether you’ve ever considered fostering or adopting, know someone who has, or just want to better understand this world, this episode is for you. In this episode, we talk about: * What led Claire to say yes to foster care * The reality (not the highlight reel) of fostering and adoption * Navigating motherhood in all its forms * The emotional impact on families and marriages * Balancing business, marriage, and a full home * Why these children deserve more voices and more awareness This episode is powerful, perspective-shifting, and a reminder that sometimes the most beautiful things in life come from the hardest “yes.”  Listen now on YouTube + wherever you get your podcasts If this episode moved you, please share it you never know who might need to hear this story.   Resources + Connect Interested in Foster Care in Oklahoma?

Episode 8: Healing from Life’s Deepest Hurts – Finding God in the Pain

In this deeply moving and faith-filled episode of Beautiful Chaos with Natasha, I sit down with Kimberly Haar to talk about her powerful testimony, healing journey, and unwavering trust in God through life’s darkest seasons. Kimberly opens up about her story of pain, restoration, and redemption and how the Holy Spirit and her personal relationship with the Lord carried her through moments she never thought she would survive. We also talk about her book, Healing from Life’s Deepest Hurts, and the heart behind its message: that true healing is possible, even after unimaginable loss and heartbreak. What makes this episode especially meaningful is that we recorded it on the 25th anniversary of my biological mother’s passing—a sacred and emotional moment that God clearly ordained. Together, we reflect on: * Walking through grief and loss * Learning how to forgive without closure * Setting healthy boundaries while healing * Letting go of the need for an apology * Finding peace without validation * Allowing God to heal what people cannot We talk honestly about how forgiveness can feel impossible when you never receive the apology you deserve and how sometimes, freedom comes when you release that expectation and give it to God instead. This episode is a reminder that: Healing is a process Grief has no timeline Forgiveness is for your freedom God can redeem every broken place If you are walking through loss, heartbreak, betrayal, or unanswered pain, this conversation will meet you right where you are. A Gentle Encouragement If you’re carrying wounds that no one sees… If you’re tired of waiting for closure… If you’re struggling to forgive… This episode is for you. You don’t have to carry it alone. God sees you. He is near. And healing is still possible.
