This week, I’m finally releasing a great conversation with Kathryn Whitaker! I asked Kathryn come on the show to talk about her new book, Live Big, Love Bigger: Getting Real with BBQ, Sweet Tea, and a Whole Lotta Jesus. We had a great conversation about how how to live a “hell yes” kinda life centered on Christ. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed chatting with her!
Our talking points:
- Acute stress of NICU life sending a good marriage to counseling
- The grace of God giving you more than you can handle
- The blessing of authentic friendship through social media during times of crisis
- Finding a good marriage counselor
- The Whitaker family’s 6-month moratorium on activities
- Learning to have an identity outside of doing
- Family discernment of commitments
- Letting kids fail
- Connecting with kids individually
- Owning your mama strengths instead of comparing and living in mama guilt
- Mom prayer life. Make it about intention, not time
- Why bringing up the gifts is one of the most beautiful parts of the Mass

As you heard in Episode 045: Back to School Blues, we’re having a rough start to the school year at our house! We’re coming off a weekend full of illness, and I’m not going to be able to record a new episode this week.
Going forward, I’ll release new episodes every other Wednesday beginning next Wednesday, September 11th.
Next week, I’ll share a great conversation I had with Kathryn Whitaker about her new book, Live Big, Love Bigger. I hope you have a chance to get your hands on a copy between now and next week!
Please keep me in your prayers as I go on a silent retreat this week. It is much needed!

This week, I talked about our house’s back to school blues. As much as we love our parish school and teachers, we are struggling (as we always do) with the adjustment. I shared what the struggle is looking like and what Philip and I are doing on the parenting side to make things a little less painful.
Revisiting last week’s episode: Did you write a letter to anyone? If not, what’s stopping you?
Listener question: Do you and your husband think my daughter might be going through precocious puberty?

Do you write letters regularly? Who do you write to, and how frequently do you write? What makes letter writing more special than other forms of communication to you? When was the last time you received a handwritten note? When was the last time you sent one?
