You Know, Balance

You Can Be Grateful and Still Struggle

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a very honest conversation about mental health, entrepreneurship, isolation, and purpose. After transitioning from nursing into running Pearl Candle Co. full time, I experienced a season of feeling deeply unfulfilled, isolated, and honestly confused even while living a life I had prayed for. In this episode, I open up about the mental health side of working for yourself, losing a sense of purpose, and how God used that season to draw me into deeper dependence on Him. If you’ve ever struggled mentally while still feeling grateful for your life, this episode is for you.

Spring Reset: Feeling Better, Sleeping Better & Living in Balance

In today’s episode I’m sharing a little life update and what’s been making me feel so good lately. With the sunshine back and the days getting longer, I’ve felt such a shift in my mood, energy, and routine. I’m talking about getting outside more, starting to run (something I never thought I could do), and how I’ve been dialing in my sleep and finding what actually works best for my body. I’m also sharing what this past weekend looked like full of birthday parties, family time after church, and enjoying life without spiraling or feeling like I’ve fallen off track. This episode is a real, honest conversation about routines, seasons of life, balance, and remembering to actually enjoy your life… especially during a week like Easter that reminds us how precious it all is.

Taking a Break From Instagram & What God Taught Me in the Quiet

Over the past couple of weeks I decided to take a break from Instagram, and honestly, I didn’t realize how much space social media was taking up in my mind until I stepped away from it. In this episode I’m sharing what I noticed during that time from feeling more present in my real life and spending more intentional time with my husband, to praying more and leaning into my relationship with Jesus in a deeper way. We’re also talking about comparison culture, the influence of social media, how often we use our phones to avoid real conversations, and why sometimes stepping away from the noise can help us hear God more clearly. This is a real-life coffee chat about distractions, faith, balance, and learning how to create space for what truly matters.

Still Learning, Still Called: Obedience Over Perfection

In this episode, I’m sharing honestly about what it feels like to love Jesus… but still feel unqualified to talk about Him. We’ll talk about seasons of drifting, seasons of leaning back in, fear of saying the wrong thing, and the quiet imposter syndrome that can creep into our faith. I’m unpacking what it means to be a witness, not a theologian. Why the power isn’t in our delivery but in the gospel. And how planting seeds matters more than having perfect words. If you’ve ever felt behind in your walk, inconsistent in church, or unsure if you know enough to share this episode is for you. You don’t have to be perfect to be obedient. Still learning. Still called.
