Sleep deprivation will test everything—your patience, your marriage, and your faith.

In this episode of Becoming the Branches Podcast, we talk candidly about postpartum exhaustion, newborn sleep struggles, and the moment we realized something had to change. We share how sleep deprivation impacted our communication, emotional health, and daily rhythms, and why asking for help became a turning point for our family.

This conversation explores the value of rest, the freedom in receiving support, and why rest isn’t a luxury, but a form of stewardship. If you’re navigating new parenthood, chronic exhaustion, or a season where you feel stretched thin, this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to carry it all alone.

Life doesn’t always transition the way we imagine it will.

In this episode of Becoming the Branches Podcast, we’re back after a long pause, and we’re talking honestly about why. From pregnancy to postpartum, from marriage to parenthood, we unpack what it really looks like to walk through major life transitions with God at the center.

This is a raw, unfiltered conversation about expectations vs. reality, the emotional and spiritual weight of becoming parents, and learning how to tell the truth about hard seasons without feeling ungrateful or faithless.

Whether you’re navigating marriage, singleness, pregnancy, parenthood, or any major life shift, this episode is an invitation to stop pretending and start bringing the whole truth before God.

Because the same God of the valley is still the same God on the mountain.
