Does your relationship sometimes feel like you're living with a room mate? Does it ever feel operational. Focused around all the to-dos?

Do you ever feel like you're giving 70% everywhere… and 100% nowhere? When I'm at work, I'm thinking about the kids.When I'm with the kids, I'm thinking about work.When I finally sit down at night, I'm thinking about what I didn't do. It's this constant, quiet guilt of:“I could have done more.” This week's solo episode is about the myth of giving everything 100%. Because maybe the goal isn't perfection. Maybe it's being intentional in the season you're in. If you've ever felt split in a thousand directions… you're not alone.

Before the baby arrives… there's often a whole invisible chapter no one talks about. In this episode, I sit down with a psychologist to unpack the mental health challenges that can show up before birth — infertility, prenatal anxiety, depression during pregnancy… and the quiet shame that can sit alongside it all. Because you can be deeply grateful…and deeply struggling. We talk about:• The emotional toll of trying to conceive• Anxiety that doesn't magically disappear once you're pregnant• Why prenatal depression is more common than we realise• How to get support early (without feeling dramatic) If this season of life felt heavier than it “should have”, this conversation is for you

At a recent school event, I felt like – was I too much? Too high energy, too loud, too bubbly. Should I have been more reserved? Would I polarise people being too 'Leonie'? In this episode, I delve into my social insecurities and whether what people think of us is really any of our business.

Have you ever looked at your spouse and realized you're not fighting… you're just fading? Like you still live together, still do the schedule, still handle the kids, but the warmth is gone, and everything feels a little more mechanical? In this episode, we dive into the second pillar of our 4R's Framework: Refresh.We talk about the Emotional Bank Account from the Gottmans, how every interaction is either a deposit or a withdrawal, and why your marriage doesn't need one big moment; it needs small daily deposits that rebuild the cushion. We're breaking down how sarcasm and random blowups are usually overdraft fees, how to spot the habits that quietly drain connection, and how to refresh your marriage with simple, intentional moves that actually change the atmosphere at home.What we hit in this episodeThe Emotional Bank AccountDeposits build safety, trust, friendship, and closenessWithdrawals drain the relationship and make everything feel heavier than it shouldConsistency over grand gesturesA big date night is niceBut daily kindness beats occasional romance every timeThe warning signs you're overdraftingShort fuses, eye rolls, constant irritation“We're fighting about nothing” fightsWithdrawing becomes normal, and nobody names itThe relationship killers (the quiet ones)Criticism, contempt, defensiveness, stonewallingNot “bad moods,” but patterns that slowly poison the connectionPractical refresh movesPut the phone down during real conversationsTurn toward bids for connection instead of brushing them offMake repair attempts fast, a small “my bad” beats a big apology three days laterYou can download the 10-Day Reset HERE!Here is the link to the first "Pick Your Poison" episodes. Send a textSupport the showSUBSCRIBELIKE & SHAREWe want to hear from you.

This week's solo episode is all about how I (try to) discipline my kids. I reflect on whether yelling is worth my energy or time and does it have the impact I was hoping for. Whether reward systems actually work and how I'm using them to instil positive habits. Why mapping out the day and key activities ahead of time has been a game-changer. Whether bribery is a necessary evil, why empty threats are so easy to give and so much more. If you're keen to get your kids to do what you want them to do – or try to – this one is for you.

This week's solo episode is all about my anxiety around meal time. Specifically my kid's meal time. One kid is a bottomless pit and the other has a beige diet preference. Meaning one eats us out of the house and we're lucky if we get 2 spoons of rice into our other kid. In this episode I talk about how I'm trying to get my kid to finish a meal and have a well-balanced diet. Whilst not comparing my kids to every other kid who's eating raw capsicums. If your life also feels a lil stress around the kid food front,this one is for you.

Have you ever looked at your spouse and realized you've become "coworkers" managing a small business called life? In this episode, we dive into the first pillar of our 4R's Framework: Reset. We talk about the "drift" that happens in every marriage, that quiet, slow move toward becoming roommates instead of partners, and how to intentionally pull back together. We're breaking down the difference between a contract and a covenant, how to find the "bonfire" behind your surface-level fights, and why honesty is the only way to rebuild your foundation.Key Discussion PointsThe 4R's Framework Overview:Reset: Starting fresh, rebuilding the base, and getting honest about what's broken.Refresh: Renewing your perspective and your emotional and physical connection.Recharge: Restoring your energy, margin, and capacity for one another.Restore: Rebuilding trust and healing the damage.The Danger of the "Drift": Marriage rarely blows up overnight; it's usually a slow, unintentional drift into logistics and task-driven living.Contract vs. Covenant Thinking:Contract: Me-centered; "I'll do my part if you do yours," often leading to withholding connection based on performance.Covenant: We-centered; "I'm in, even if you are struggling," based on a sacred promise rather than a mood.Killing the "Bonfire" of Unmet Expectations: We often fight about the dishes, but the "bonfire" is actually feeling unseen or disrespected.The "Vent vs. Fix" Tool: A simple question that changed our communication: "Do you need me to listen, or do you need me to provide a solution?"You can download the 10-Day Reset HERE!Send a textSupport the showSUBSCRIBELIKE & SHAREWe want to hear from you.

This week felt heavy. With everything going on in the world and the sudden loss of Charlie Kirk, we wanted to sit down and talk honestly about something that every single one of us wrestles with: how do you actually disagree well? Not just in politics or online arguments, but in your marriage, your friendships, and your faith.We didn't come into this episode with a script, just an urge to talk through what the Bible says about conflict, humility, forgiveness, and love when it's hard. Together, we walked through verses that keep us grounded (Ephesians 5:21, James 4:6, Proverbs 15:1, Colossians 3:13, Romans 12:15) and shared the real ways these play out in our own marriage, the messy arguments, the moments we've had to swallow pride, and the times we've chosen to forgive first.This isn't about winning debates. It's about remembering that people matter more than being right. It's about guarding your words, choosing humility over pride, and learning to pause before you say something that can't be unsaid.We hope this conversation encourages you to slow down, reflect, and take a fresh look at how you handle conflict in your own life. Because at the end of the day, we believe marriage, and every relationship, can be reset, refreshed, recharged, and restored.Send us a textSupport the showSUBSCRIBELIKE & SHAREWe want to hear from you.

“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children…” - Proverbs 13:22That verse teaches that a life of faithful stewardship will enable you to leave something of great value to your heirs. How you do it can impact future generations. Jeanne McMains joins us today to talk about “intentional inheritance.” Jeanne McMains has been a practicing attorney in estate planning, business succession, and non-profits since 1995. She currently serves as the Vice President of Gift Planning with The National Christian Foundation (NCF), where she assists families nationwide with achieving their charitable gift-planning goals.What Is an Intentional Inheritance?An intentional inheritance is more than the distribution of wealth. It's a prayerful, purposeful plan for shaping the lives of those who will receive what we leave behind. Inheritance is one of the most significant stewardship decisions we make. It's not just about how much but how—and why—we give.This perspective calls for a deep shift. Before passing on wealth, we must first pass on wisdom. Otherwise, unmanaged or misunderstood wealth can do more harm than good.Start with Prayerful IntrospectionAsk yourself: What role does wealth play in my life? Reframe your mindset around money—not as a measure of success or security but as a tool for Kingdom work. Wealth is an entrustment from God, not an end in itself. That means laying it down at the cross daily, asking the Lord to help us steward it with humility and grace.Three Types of InheritanceTo simplify this big task, here are three kinds of inheritance every Christian family should consider:1. Inheritance to SpendThis is the traditional kind of inheritance—resources intended to provide opportunities, experiences, and essentials. Think of it as financial fuel to help your heirs live productive, content lives. But maturity matters. Consider using this inheritance to fund training, travel, or education before a large transfer, especially if the heir is still developing financial literacy or spiritual maturity.2. Inheritance to ShapeThis is where legacy comes to life. Instead of simply giving money, consider shaping character through shared experiences—like mission trips, retreats, or projects that reflect your family's values.3. Inheritance to ShareWe're blessed to be a blessing. Set aside a portion of your estate to fuel generosity in the next generation. This might include donor-advised funds, charitable trusts, or other giving vehicles your heirs can use to support ministries or causes close to their hearts. This is how we teach our children to reflect God's love through giving.Practical Steps to Craft an Intentional InheritanceHere are four foundational steps to take:1. Engage in Open DialogueTalk with your heirs about the purpose behind the inheritance. Focus less on how much and more on why. Share your values, your heart for the Kingdom, and how you hope the inheritance will be used to bless others. This conversation builds trust, understanding, and spiritual alignment.It's not about dollars and zeros; it's about attitude, opportunity, and calling.2. Work with Faith-Aligned AdvisorsChoose financial and legal professionals who share your biblical worldview. Whether you're working with an estate attorney or a financial planner, the right team will help ensure your legacy is stewarded with wisdom and integrity. That's why we recommend connecting with a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA). To find one near you, visit FaithFi.com and click “Find a Professional.”3. Prepare Your HeirsDon't wait until the inheritance is distributed. Teach your heirs financial literacy and spiritual stewardship now. Let them stumble, learn, and grow while you're still here to mentor and encourage them.4. Use Strategic ToolsLeverage estate planning vehicles like wills, trusts, donor-advised funds, and charitable gift plans. These tools help ensure your assets are distributed in a way that promotes ongoing generosity and reflects your commitment to faithful living.Even well-meaning inheritances can lead to confusion, entitlement, or spiritual drift without intentional planning. But with prayer, purpose, and preparation, your legacy can be a launching pad for generations of Kingdom impact.Want to learn more?Explore practical tools and gospel-centered resources at NCFgiving.com to help you build a legacy of generosity and faith.
