You’re doing everything right—but still single. You’ve prayed. Stayed faithful. Attended BYU. And yet… no husband. No temple sealing. No timeline that makes sense. You sit in church surrounded by couples and families, wondering where you fit—and if you even matter. You’ve heard the talks. You strive to keep the commandments. Tried to stay hopeful. But deep down, you can’t shake the ache: 🌀 Did I miss my chance? 🌀 Am I broken—or worse, forgotten? 🌀 What does this mean for my exaltation… and about my worth?

Let’s be honest—rejection hurts. Whether it’s the guy who ghosts you, the invite that never comes, or watching someone else get the promotion you prayed for… it stings. But here’s the real truth: the most painful rejection isn’t when they say no—it’s when you reject yourself.
In this episode, I’m showing you how self-rejection sneaks in, how it’s holding you back, and what to do to stop it. You’ll learn how to stop making rejection mean something’s wrong with you—and how to start having your own back, no matter what.
Because when you accept you, love you, and believe in you? Rejection loses its sting.

Struggling with the command to “be fruitful, multiply and replenish the earth” when you’re still single and childless? This episode will change how you see it—forever.
In today’s conversation, I’m unpacking one of the most quoted scriptures and showing you how it applies to you—yes, even if you never marry or have kids. You’ll learn how being fruitful, multiplying, and replenishing the earth isn’t just about diapers and wedding rings. It’s about growth, influence, and bringing goodness into the world.
If you’ve ever felt left out of God’s plan because of your marital status, I hope you’ll listen in. You’re not behind. You’re not disqualified. You’re already living this command—one faithful act at a time.

You’ve been praying for a husband for years…and nothing.  You’re faithful, you’re doing your part, and yet the loneliness still stings.  I came across a post that said, “Your singleness isn’t a problem to fix – it’s a space to flourish.”  I loved it.  But the comments underneath? Oof.  They broke my heart.  Today, we’re talking about what might be really happening when it feels like God’s ignoring your prayers – and how to shift your prayers and perspective so you can finally feel seen, loved and confident again.

This one’s for the woman who’s tired of feeling stuck—and ready to grow into the life God is calling her to live and knows is just over the horizon.

Ever feel like you're stuck in a life that’s smaller than the one you were meant for?
In this episode, we’re talking about what’s really keeping you stuck—and how to break free. I’ll share one of my favorite stories.  If you are a dog lover, you will love the story. And I share an insight from Ether 3 in the Book of Mormon that reminded me of a powerful truth: You are a spirit daughter of God. You have divine DNA. And because of that, you already have the power to create a life you love.
If you’ve been waiting, doubting, or feeling like life just keeps happening to you, this episode will help you see that the gate is open—and it’s time to walk through it.
