Welcome to A Team / B Team—where friendship gets drafted, loyalty gets tested, and nobody is safe from the group chat truth.

It’s a quick conversation about the friendships, that surround us. Who is on your team? Are they loyal, or just around some times. Let's break down the friendship circle like a draft board—who shows up for you, who disappears when it matters, and who’s really on your roster when life gets heavy?

Sometimes you have to re-evaluate the lineup. Because not everyone who cheers for you is built for your A Team—and not every B Team player is a bad person…

Welcome to the draft.

There comes a point where protecting your peace isn’t optional… it’s necessary.

In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to put that “Do Not Disturb” sign up—not out of anger, not out of avoidance, but out of growth. Because sometimes the noise isn’t just out in the world… it’s in the expectations, the constant access, the quiet pressure to always be available.

With humor, honesty, and a whole lot of “that’s so real,” we get into:

• Why we struggle to set boundaries (especially with people we love)
• How constant availability can slowly drain you
• The guilt that shows up when you finally start choosing yourself
• And what it looks like to create space without losing connection

We also talk about family—because let’s be honest, it hits different when it’s your people, your children, your grandbabies, and the roles you’ve always played. Learning to say “not today” doesn’t mean you love them any less… it just means you’re learning how to love yourself too.

And for those of us over 50?
Whew… peace feels different. It’s not about reacting anymore—it’s about recognizing what doesn’t deserve your energy before it even gets close.

Parenting ain’t for the faint of heart—it’s for the called, the stretched, the “Lord give me strength” kind of people. Parenting, A Pot of Coffee & A Shot is a real, unfiltered conversation about the beautiful chaos of raising humans while trying to hold onto your own peace.

This episode pours honesty in one cup and a little humor in the other. Because some days feel like warm coffee and morning cuddles… and other days? Whew. That’s where the “shot” comes in—whatever you need to get through the moment, whether it’s faith, laughter, a deep breath in the pantry, or a silent scream in the car.

So grab your pot, pour your shot—however that looks for you—and sit with me. Because healing, humor, and honesty all have a seat at this table.
