Sometimes the simplest shift in your daily rhythm can unlock the clarity and momentum you’ve been waiting for. In this energizing episode, I reconnect with book writing mentor Joshua Sprague, who joined us during the Speak Truth to Live Summit. Joshua has helped over 13,000 people start and finish their books, and his approach to creativity is as practical as it is powerful.

In this conversation, Joshua shares what it means to begin your day by creating instead of consuming, how he structures his business around deep focus, and why imposter syndrome is a sign that you're on the edge of something important. If you've ever dreamed of writing a book or building something meaningful with your voice, this episode offers a clear and motivating path forward.

Key Takeaways:

• Your voice already has value — share before you feel fully ready
• Focus is a skill that gets stronger with structure
• You don’t need to be perfect, you need to begin
• Writing a book is more doable than you think with the right support
• The creative process itself is part of your message
• Discipline creates freedom when rooted in intention

Some conversations open a door inside us that we didn’t even know was waiting. This episode is one of those sacred moments. I had the honor of speaking with Sandra Kobsar, a VIP guest from the Speak Truth to Live Summit, whose honest and emotional journey moved me deeply. Sandra is a licensed professional counselor and behavioral mental health specialist who supports children through resilience-building. But in this conversation, she allows herself to be seen. She shares her truth in real time and invites us into her process of reclaiming her voice and choosing her own authority.

Sandra is not broken. She is powerful, aware, and incredibly brave. You will hear her emotion. You will feel her truth. And you might see parts of your own story in hers. If you have ever felt stuck or silenced, I hope this conversation helps you remember that your voice is ready when you are.

Topics We Covered:

• Why your healing doesn’t need to be perfect to be powerful
• Reclaiming your voice and honoring your truth
• How childhood wounds shape our adult stories
• When a triggering moment becomes your awakening
• Giving yourself permission to create, speak, and lead
• Moving from therapy to soul work and coaching

Key Takeaways:

• You are your own authority — not your past, not others
• Even chaos can be the beginning of clarity
• Your truth doesn’t need a polished package — it needs your voice
• Sometimes, healing happens when we speak instead of stay silent
• Every step forward is a win, even if you’re still afraid
• Soul work starts with choosing to see yourself differently

A Tribute to Love, Marriage, and Growing Together

Thirteen years ago, I said “yes” to a life of adventure — not just in wild places, but in partnership. In this special anniversary minisode, I’m reflecting on what marriage has taught me: the beauty, the challenges, and the unexpected ways we grow into new versions of ourselves alongside the ones we love.

This is a love letter, a story of becoming not just a bride, but a wife, a mother, and a true partner in life. I share a few stories and memories that remind me why we chose each other and continue to choose each other every single day.

Inside this episode:

• A personal tribute to my husband on our 13th wedding anniversary
• What horses, marriage, and parenting have in common
• A reminder that we are always becoming — together
• Why love is more than a feeling, it’s a practice
• How we met (yes, literally in a prayer) and how that miracle still unfolds
• Reflections on blessing, presence, and showing up fully in relationship

If you’re curious about our love story, listen to the full episode on The Miracle of How We Met — it’s one of my favorite stories to tell.

And if you haven’t yet, check out Jackie Woodside’s powerful interview in the Speak Truth to Live Summit:

Wherever you are in your journey — newlywed, long-time partner, solo traveler — may you find ways to bless and be blessed. And if love feels hard, may you return to the truth of it. You’re not alone.

Thanks for listening and being part of this wild, beautiful ride.
