✨ What do you do when life doesn't look the way you thought it would?

Come sit with me.

In this Season 4 finale of Just Jelly Unfiltered, I'm sharing thelessons from Luke 8, 9, and 10 that helped me find permission to speak again through grief, starting over, and preparing to walk the Camino de Santiago.

For the past two years, I've been moving through some of the hardest seasons of my life. Relationships changed. Dreams shifted. Parts of my story unraveled. Then I found myself sitting with Luke 8, and what surprised me wasn't what I learned about Jesus. It was what I learned about myself.

In this episode, I share:

🌱 Tending the Soil: Why the people praying for you matter morethan the people talking about you.

🌊 Handling the Storm: Trusting God when life feels uncertain,and learning that faith matters just as much when the water is calm.

✨ Holding On to Hope: Remembering who you are beneath the titles, expectations, and losses.

👣 Walking by Faith: Taking the next step when you don't haveall the answers.

I also share the daily rhythms that carry me through the storms, my 5 W's:

• Wake & Worship

• Walk & Workout

• Work & Win

• Whisper & Witness

• Wind Down & Write

This conversation is about faith, healing, midlife, starting over, and finding the courage to keep walking when the path ahead isn't fully visible.

My question for you:

Where have you been waiting for permission?

Permission to speak.

Permission to take up space.

Permission to startover.

Permission to live again.

Tell me in the Hey You section on the website.

It's the heart of what Season Five will be, and I want it shaped by you.

The Messy Middle of Coming Out, Starting Over, and Finding Your Truth | From Silent to Said It with Jerod

In this unfiltered conversation, I sit down with Jerod to discuss coming out, divorce, parenting, bullying, self-discovery, and finding the courage to live authentically. Jerod shares his personal journey of discovering his sexuality, navigating major life transitions, having honest conversations with his children, and learning how to embrace his truth.

We explore the messy middle that so many people experience when life doesn’t go according to plan. From rebuilding after divorce to overcoming fear, judgment, and expectations, this episode is about finding your voice and stepping into the person you were always meant to be.

Jerod shares how finding his voice through podcasting opened the door to an entirely new chapter. Today, he is the founder of Said It Beauty, turning his experiences, resilience, and passion into a brand that encourages others to show up authentically. His journey proves that some of life’s most difficult seasons can become the catalyst for our greatest growth.

This week on Messy Midlife Monday, Maria from The Pretty Truth and I are talking about the 2026 trends everyone in midlife seems to be discussing: AI, side hustles, money stress, menopause, friendship shifts, boundaries, burnout, going offline, and what it really means to start over.

What began as a four-episode series became some of my favorite conversations about navigating the messy middle of life. Maria, thank you for showing up with honesty, wisdom, laughter, and heart. It has been such a gift to share these conversations with you and our community. Thank you for helping us normalize the conversations so many people are having behind closed doors.

If you've enjoyed this series and would like to be considered as a future guest co-host, send me a DM. I'd love to hear your story.

Next week, in honor of Pride Month, I'm sitting down with Jarod from Said It. As he prepares to launch his own lip gloss line, Jarod shares his journey through the messy middle of self-discovery, finding love, embracing his authentic self, and navigating conversations with family and friends along the way.

His story is a reminder that every person deserves to be seen, heard, loved, and accepted for who they are.

Because no matter where you are in your journey, your voice matters.

What state are you finding your voice in? Tell me below.

Someone else may need to know they’re not walking this journey alone. We were never meant to sit in silence alone.
