episode 037: A Big, Happy Life with Bethany Adkins cover

Description

In this episode we talk all about following God when it doesn't line up with the American Dream. Bethany Adkins and her husband had the big house in California. They had a pretty dreamy lifestyle.  And they were working great jobs while raising a family with some darling kids. Then God rearranged their dreams, which left them with a lot of questions until they were obedient and moved across the country. Bethany and I talk all about listening to God when He asks us to do the unpopular thing. She shares her story of joy despite it looking very different from worldly happiness. And we talk about how to walk by faith even when it is scary and uncertain. Spoiler alert: they are happier than ever. Tune in to this episode!

039: A Big, Happy Life with Latasha Ferguson

Let's talk women's bodies + healthy lifestyles, shall we? Podcaster + author Latasha Ferguson talks all about her own health journey and shares how she overcame being a single mom on welfare weighing the heaviest she ever weighed to where she is now - healthy + happy. We get into the shameful pathways of thinking + negative views women hold about their bodies. Latasha shares the work that really ended up changing her life + it isn't the cabbage soup diet. Latasha's story is one for any woman who has ever battled a relationship with food or unhealthy + unholy viewpoints of her body (which is many of us). You will feel so deeply inspired + have such powerful tools after listening to  this incredibly honest + vulnerable conversation. Let's go meet my friend, Latasha.

035: A Big, Happy Life with Sharon Hodde Miller

In this episode, we get to hear Sharon's own road to abundance. Sharon is a well-known voice in today's Christianity. You can find her leading her own church alongside her husband, as well as speaking up for the advancement of the kingdom via her own books, Nice + Free of Me. She also cuts through the social media world, making us think and bring clarity to the day, As we chat, we discuss her own thought process of how she decides when to say no and what to keep building. She provides such wisdom in how to chose emotional health over constant striving. And then she dives into her own journey as a woman in ministry. It's quite fascinating! Ya'll are going to love her (if you don't already). She will help you see the way of Jesus and take a moment to decide for yourself how you want to keep following Him.
