Welcome back! Its been too long. I'm so excited to be back recording. I'm kicking off recording with my 12 year old son, Cooper. He bravely talks about his struggles with anxiety and OCD. Listen as we dive into what going to school is like for someone battling OCD. Cooper has a beautiful gift of vulnerability and I'm so grateful he's brave enough to share it with the world.

This episodes guest is Jess Lowry. She is a Pastor, wife, mother, and dear friend. Our story is riddled with lessons, heartache, and eventually friendship and for me a stronger connection to God. Join us as we candidly discuss our rocky beginning and all of the in between divine moments that led us to where we are today.
