You know that feeling when you haven’t seen a good friend in a really long time? And you sit down over lunch and you’re talking so fast that you can’t breathe? And the server has to keep returning to your table because you haven’t looked at the menu yet because there’s so much to say??? That’s me today. It has been a year since I last spoke to you in real time. So, today I’m catching you up on what’s going on in my life and what’s next for The Balanced MomCast

What we discussed

• How Philippians 2:13 became my lifeline through a year of massive transitions
• A month-by-month recap of my wild 2025: weddings, graduations, Italy, job loss, empty nest, cross-country moves, and everything in between
• How my role has shifted from mom-with-kids-at-home to mom-of-adults, and what that means for this next season
• What’s staying the same in 2026: Writing Off Social, my newsletter, and my commitment to writing
• What’s new in 2026:The Abide Sessions–my new premium spiritual formation membership for women who are tired of spiritual to-do lists
• BIG NEWS! Why I’m putting The Balanced MomCast on my To-Don’t List (at least for now)
• The beautiful biblical principle of letting the land rest—and why I’m applying it to this podcast
• Where you can continue to follow along with my work (hint: Behind the Balance newsletter is the best place!)
• A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has listened, shared, and walked this journey with me over the past seven years
