If your kitchen counter has become the final resting place for mail, keys, and random water bottles, this episode is for you. We're not here to shame your piles -we're going to get curious about what your clutter might be saying about your life right now.

UCLA research from their Center on Everyday Lives of Families reveals that when women describe their homes as cluttered, they show less healthy daily cortisol patterns—their stress hormones don't decline normally across the day.

But here's the compassionate truth: Your mess isn't evidence that you're lazy. It's information about your internal state.

SCRIPTURE HIGHLIGHT: "My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest." Isaiah 32:18

Does taking even one hour for yourself make you feel guilty? You're not alone. Research shows that 1 in 5 women feels selfish, guilty, or anxious about self-care —and it's even higher for married women and mothers.

In this episode, we're tackling the cultural conditioning that makes rest feel like failure and self-care seem selfish. Discover why the fear of "if I stop, I'll never start again" keeps you running on empty, the difference between numbing and true nourishing care, what Scripture says about rest, and one practical step to reframe self-care as stewardship.

SCRIPTURE HIGHLIGHT: "The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:31

Additional reference: Luke 5:16

Feeling disconnected? Research shows we massively underestimate how much our friends appreciate hearing from us - and the barriers we create are mostly in our heads.

In this uplifting episode, Janet explores the science behind why we hesitate to reach out, what the Bible says about fellowship and encouragement, and why a simple "thinking of you" text can boost both your wellbeing and theirs.

SCRIPTURE HIGHLIGHT: "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching." Hebrews 10:24-25
