    244. Parenting in a Digital World with the Screen Guys

    11/05/2026 | 30 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    In this episode, I sit down with Talmage Erickson from Screen Guys to talk about the impact of kids using cell phones and what's actually happening inside their brains when they're on screens… and what we can do about it without going extreme or losing connection.
    We get honest about the all-or-nothing trap parents fall into, why screens are regulating emotions more than we realize, and how to respond when things get really hard… including discovering pornography use.
    This isn’t about control.
    It’s about connection, awareness, and leading your home on purpose.
    You're not too late! Your kids don’t need perfect rules. They need a regulated parent who knows how to stay close when things get uncomfortable.

    You’re trying.
    You’re praying.

    242. When Porn Shatters Trust with David Dodini

    27/04/2026 | 40 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    When trust breaks like this… it touches everything. How safe you feel. How you see yourself. Even how you hear God.
    In this week's episode, I sit down with therapist David Dodini who works in this space every day. And we talk about what’s actually going on beneath the surface.
    Not the shame.
    Not the assumptions.
    The real reasons this pattern sticks… and why so many women end up carrying responsibility that was never theirs.
    We talk about betrayal, what your reaction means (and what it doesn’t), and how to move forward without losing yourself in the process.
    If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this my fault?”… start here.
    You are not the cause of his struggle. And you are not the solution either.

    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Sometimes the hardest part isn’t leaving.
    It’s realizing something is wrong in the first place.
    You just feel… off. Confused. Second-guessing yourself. Walking on eggshells and calling it “being patient.”
    In this episode, I sit down with Becky Bytheway Wengreen, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, who shares her personal story of living through emotional abuse and what it actually looks like when it’s not obvious.

    240. Healing Through Forgiveness with the Sister Connection

    13/04/2026 | 25 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Some pain doesn’t feel forgivable.
    Not because you don’t want peace… but because it feels unfair to let it go.
    In this Sister Connection episode, two women share what it actually looks like to wrestle with forgiveness when the hurt runs deep.
    One is navigating forgiveness after years of abuse from her mother.
    The other is grieving the loss of her 17-year-old daughter from a preventable accident.
    This isn’t surface-level “just forgive and move on.”
    This is about what happens when anger, grief, faith, and healing all collide.
    One takeaway:
    Forgiveness isn’t about excusing what happened. It’s about choosing what you carry forward… and what you finally set down.
