Holly sits down for a chat with dear friend and former co-host of the SLF Podcast, Dina DeLeasa-Gonsar (DishItGirl.com) This week's episode is an honest conversation about Hope That Doesn’t Disappoint— finding joy, steadiness, and God’s goodness in everyday roles like marriage, motherhood, and the kitchen table.

Dina shares:

• How the table has become a place where hope grows in her family
• Holding onto hope in the daily grind when motherhood and marriage feel ordinary or hard
• Her favorite hope verse right now (and why it’s speaking to her)
• A quick kitchen tip or recipe that brings her joy (plus a link to her cookbook in show notes!)
• What she’s hoping for in 2026

Perfect for any woman wanting to rediscover hope in the small, faithful moments — even when life feels routine or heavy.

Listen now for encouragement that feels like coffee with a friend who gets it.
