We Stopped Sharing Pictures of Our Kids Online (Here’s Why)17 Dec 202500:18:53

I never expected an innocent moment to change how I show up online as a mom, but one experience stopped me in my tracks and forced me to ask harder questions about privacy, protection, and wisdom in a digital world.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing the story behind why we stopped sharing our kids’ faces online and the deeper convictions, concerns, and discernment that shaped that decision. If you’ve ever felt even a small hesitation about sharing your kids online, this conversation is for you. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer but there is wisdom in listening, praying, and choosing the most protective path when you’re unsure.

What You’ll Learn

  • What happened when a video of my children went viral and why it became a turning point
  • The realities of online privacy, consent, and how little control we actually have once something is public
  • Why AI, facial recognition, and future tech developments raised new concerns for me as a parent
  • How to share your motherhood journey without exploiting your child’s childhood
  • Encouragement for navigating parenting decisions with conviction, grace, and flexibility

Your Body is A Gift, Not a Project to Fix22 Oct 202500:18:02

If you’ve ever felt frustrated with your body -- how it looks, how it feels, or how it functions — you’re not alone. So many of us have treated our bodies like problems to solve or projects to perfect, believing that if we could just “fix” them, we’d finally feel whole.

In this episode, Jordan shares the heart behind her new book Be Good to Your Body and opens up about her own journey from striving and restriction to grace and stewardship. Through personal reflection and biblical truth, she helps us reframe how we view our bodies, moving from frustration and control toward freedom and trust in the way God designed us.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why your beliefs about your body shape your behaviors toward it
  • How “discipline” can quietly turn into self-punishment
  • The difference between supporting and controlling your body
  • How to spot when wellness becomes an idol
  • What Scripture says about your body as a good gift from God
  • One mindset shift that can help you treat your body with grace, not guilt

What I Wish I Would Have Known Before Trying To Get Pregnant16 Oct 202400:26:43

Our medical system recommends pap smears as preventative screenings but when a woman wants to have a baby, the medical approach is "Give it a whirl. We'll see what happens."

But what if we took proactive steps to advocate for our health and did some simple tests before getting pregnant or experiencing fertility issues?

In this episode, Jordan shares what she wishes she had known before trying to conceive and what tests she would have done before getting pregnant.

Do You Have Trust Issues? (Ft. Lysa TerKeurst)09 Oct 202400:45:10

Broken trust can be painful and cause you to question all your relationships with people and even your relationship with God.

Whether a family member betrayed you, someone cheated on you, a leader deceived you, or a friend hurt you, it can be difficult to move forward.

You may even start to question if you can trust God when you're afraid of what He'll allow next.

In this episode, Jordan talks with author Lysa TerKeurst about what trust is made up of, what to do about broken trust, and how to move forward with ourselves, others, and God.

How to Untangle Your Emotions (Ft. Jennie Allen)10 Apr 202400:37:40

Have you ever heard the phrase "don't let your emotions get the best of you"? While it may feel more comfortable to try and stuff our feelings away and push through, what would it look like to actually feel our emotions and find healing?

We could all probably agree that it's easier said than done! Feeling your feelings can be extremely uncomfortable.

But feelings aren't something to fix. God designed us with emotions and as we discover how to name and navigate those emotions, we’ll learn how they can draw us closer to God.

In this episode, Jordan talks with bestselling author and national speaker Jennie Allen about how to untangle your emotions and draw nearer to God in the process.

Tune in to learn:

  • What “revved-up reactions” are and what we can do to regulate our emotions
  • Why grief isn't linear and why we can't put it in a formula
  • What the Bible says about denying our emotions and what God says to us about our emotions
  • The importance of feeling our feelings instead of fixing them
  • How learning about your feelings can impact your parenting
